The $22 million project, started in September 2015, features two playing fields. The space for field hockey and women's lacrosse, at the southern end of the property by 13th Street and Girard Avenue, is named Howarth Field in recognition of a $500,000 gift from former field hockey student-athlete Cherifa Howarth, CPH '98, and her husband, Greg. The northern field, ringed by a publicly accessible track, serves men's and women's soccer, women's track and field, and men's and women's cross country. Each field includes bleachers, a digital scoreboard and press box. An 11,000-square-foot locker room facility separates the fields.
The approximately 10-acre property, which is the site of the former William Penn High School, also provides much-needed space for intramural and club sports, such as field hockey, lacrosse, soccer and ultimate Frisbee. New sidewalks have been installed, and 40 street trees have been planted around the perimeter of the complex.
