• The facility was named after the late Mike Moore, a longtime supporter of LSU softball. During his life, Mr. Moore was an avid and very active fan of LSU Athletics. Mr. Moore and his family were season ticket holders for multiple sports and often traveled across the country to watch the Tigers play.

• Mr. Moore tragically passed away while traveling with his wife supporting the LSU Softball team in Palm Springs, California in February of 2015. Before his passing, Mr. Moore and his family made a financial commitment to the LSU softball program for the performance center.

• This state-of-the-art facility features a fullsized infield, multiple hitting lanes and a team weight room, believed to be the first-ever exclusive weight room for a softball team in the nation.

• The space of 14,500 square feet features 1,279 square feet dedicated to the weight room and 770 square feet on the second floor specifically for cardio equipment.

• Each hitting lane has wired electricity which provides the staff and student-athletes the capability to set up multiple hitting machines throughout the facility. The facility is wired with a custom multi-camera system that provides a chance to immediately review film during practice.

• The building is also equipped with 517 square feet of storage space and a 240 square foot locker room area. Lighting is energy efficient with impact-resistant LED fixtures.

• A custom turf, that mirrors real grass in terms of playability and performance, was installed with LSU branding through the entire indoor. Graphics are placed throughout the interior of the facility that honors the history of LSU softball.
