Kitty Gaughan Pavilion Renovations Last year, the Creighton Baseball program continued to excel both on and off the field. After capturing the BIG EAST Conference regular season title in their inaugural season as apart of the league, the Bluejays followed that exceptional showing with a second straight appearance in the conference championship game. The program has established itself as a powerhouse in the BIG EAST Conference. The Kitty Gaughan Pavilion Renovation is a much-needed remodel to the locker room and player’s lounge area. This renovation will turn the crowded locker room into an elite clubhouse in addition to providing our student-athletes an area with amenities that will allow them unwind and relax after practice and games. Construction on the remodel began after the 2015 season and concluded in time for the start of fall ball and the fall semester of this 2015-2016 season. The $100,000 locker room renovation features 37 new lockers, cabinetry and carpeting along with new Creighton Baseball signage and logos. Further, new flat screen TVs and other media resources will be added which will allow the student-athletes to watch other baseball contests and game film of their own. The showers and bathroom amenities, ventilation and heating system have also been greatly improved to provide a nicer, more convenient option for the student-athletes. We have begun a second phase of the project that will enhance the amenities of the lounge area in the Kitty Gaughan Pavilion for both the baseball and softball programs. This project will feature new couches, chairs, and TVs, and will also feature a kitchenette area and two new offices for staff and coaches. New graphic art displays highlighting our program’s success will also be installed to enhance the look and feel of the lounge.
