The College of Charleston will be playing its tenth season at Patriots Point Athletics Complex in Mt. Pleasant, SC. The $6.5 million facility is home to the Cougar soccer, softball, and baseball programs.

The main building is equipped with locker rooms, a meeting area and press areas for all teams. Also housed there are concessions and a full laundry facility. The 35-acre complex also includes softball and baseball practice fields as well as five Mt. Pleasant youth soccer fields. Recently completed is a new expanded state-of-the-art training building that will fulfill the medical needs of all the student-athletes at Patriots Point.

Patriots Point was completed in the fall of 2000 and was a collaborative effort between the College of Charleston, the Town of Mt. Pleasant, and the Patriots Point Development Authority. The complex operates on a joint agreement between Mt. Pleasant and CofC concerning the use and maintenance of the fields.

"We maintain the playing surface like a golf course fairway," said Kevin Taylor, Patriots Point Facility and Ground Manager and a goalie on Clemson's 1987 national championship team. "It's as good a surface as I've played on or any golf course fairway that I've seen."

"If I was a young man or woman I'd want to play at the College of Charleston and Patriots Point Stadium because it's as good a soccer facility as there is in the nation," added Taylor, who worked as a golf course superintendent for 11 years.

Capacity: 2,000

 

Surface: Bermuda Grass Field
