Oklahoma City University began play in 2008 in the newly completed Ann Lacy Stadium, which is regarded as one of the finest small-college softball facilities in the nation. The complex is located at OCU directly north of the Freede Center on the corner of N.W. 27th Street and Florida Avenue. The complex features state-of-the-art amenities including an indoor hitting facility, locker rooms, the Paul and Kim Sanders reception area and coaches offices. The Stars opened the stadium with a bang, beating Mid-America Christian 5-0, 5-1 on March 25, 2008. Melody Murphy had the first hit and scored the first run in the first inning of the first game. Murphy stole the first base in the sixth of the first game. Julie Harvey recorded the first strikeout and win in the new ballpark. Melissa Moore hit the first home run in the facil- ity on April 1, 2008 against Oklahoma Christian. “I wanted to give the team the facilities they deserve,” Ann Lacy, the facility’s benefactor and namesake, said. “They are national champions and they should have a stadium on campus they can be very proud of.” OCU did not have an on-campus softball field since 1992. “Our Stars belong on campus where they can feel proud not only of what they accomplish, but also of where they play,” OCU President Tom McDaniel said. “They go out on the field and make us proud all the time. It’s only fitting for us to give them a place to play and practice right here on campus.” OCU athletic director Jim Abbott said, “It is a state-of-the-art facility that is befitting of our elite softball program.” The Stars won their first 21 games at Ann Lacy Stadium and have gone 33-3 (.917) there.
