Dec. 19, 1999
Because of the expanding horizon of Terrapin soccer and the growing
interest in its achievement on the field, the most extensive facility
enhancement in Maryland soccer history was undertaken in 1995.
The
result: the state-of-the-art Ludwig Soccer Field.
Built at a cost of $2.5 million, the facility's quality now matches the
soccer program. Ludwig Field, officially dedicated on September 16,
1995, is surely a cornerstone of college soccer throughout the nation.
The 4,000-seat facility is an integral part of the more than $40 million
of new construction for Maryland athletics. The complex is fully lighted
with an all-weather track and a sodded Bermuda grass playing field.
The permanent lights allow for commonly scheduled night games. The
lights also allow Maryland the ability to host NCAA and Atlantic Coast
Conference tournaments, high-caliber in-season tournaments and
nationally televised games.
The complex was also constructed with the local soccer fan very much in
mind. The field is located directly adjacent to Parking Lot 1 and close
to the University Boulevard entrance.
The facility is named after lifetime Terrapin friends Bob and Louise
Ludwig.
