A Message from the Coach

For more, visit JMUSports.com

Welcome to JMU softball. As the Dukes’ first and only softball coach in our eight-year history, I am proud that JMU softball is recognized as one of the top programs in the conference and in our region. As the defending 2009 Colonial Athletic Association Champions, we continue to aspire to greater heights. I encourage you to consider JMU as an up-and-coming program on the national level.

Facilities are a big indication of the university’s overall dedication to a program’s success and we are very fortunate here at JMU. This spring, we will open Veterans Memorial Park - the $9.5 million state of the art baseball and softball facility. The lighted complex has an extraordinary press box, pro style dugouts with restrooms, six pitching bullpens, two batting cages, a hitting practice area, ticket office, concessions, JMU apparel sales and separate bathrooms for baseball and softball fans. A complete indoor facility is adjacent to the stadium inside Memorial Hall. We have new coaches’ offices, locker rooms, a softball team

room, strength and conditioning areas, indoor practice cages, athletic training room and a study hall area. All of the support areas for our

student-athletes are in one building.James Madison University provides the opportunity to get a first-rate education and to play

Division I athletics. Our players get to challenge themselves in the classroom and on the ball field against the nation’s best. They have a wonderful experience as students, as athletes and socially as an ‘every day’ college kid.

I encourage you read through our guide and learn more about JMU and the Dukes softball program. People continue to be amazed at the beauty of our campus here in the Shenandoah Valley. Consider a visit to JMU to experience what makes us special. We have a truly unique environment here in Harrisonburg. I feel fortunate to have the opportunity to be a part of it and to call JMU my home.

We are excited about the future of JMU softball and hope that you will join us for another exciting season.

Go Dukes!

Coach Katie Flynn
