Spartan student-athletes play at modern sports facilities
and use the latest training techniques to maximize their potential.
The campus
facilities include a newly installed synthetic turf playing field, ancillary
grass practice fields, track, baseball diamond, pool and diving facilities,
gymnasium, weight room, training room and recently upgraded locker room. With
more than 600 student-athletes playing both intermural and intramural sports,
our facilities serve as the places in which the bonds of Brotherhood are formed
in competition.

Owen Owens Field
Owen Owens field serves as the home venue for many of our
teams. The lighted, synthetic surface with surrounding quarter mile track hosts
football, soccer, lacrosse, rugby and track and field contests.
Baseball Diamond
The baseball diamond has a natural grass infield and
outfield with views of Mt. Diablo from the bleachers behind home plate. There
are sunken dugouts for each team. Outfield dimensions are 335’ left field, 400’
center field and 285’ right field.
Gymnasium
In 2007, the gymnasium was renovated and retrofitted to
comply with the most stringent safety standards. With a seating capacity for 1,200
fans it is home to the basketball, volleyball and wrestling teams.
Swimming Pool
Our heated pool hosts the water polo team and features ten lanes for swim meets and
has two 1-meter diving boards. A bust of De La Salle’s legendary swim coach
Perry “PK” Kelly stands in the corner of the deck as testament to his coaching
excellence.
Weight Room
The Spartan weight room is located next to the gymnasium and
locker room. Student-athletes use the weight room as part of a comprehensive
conditioning program.
Locker Room
The locker room was renovated and retrofitted along with the
gymnasium and is the hub of Spartan athletics programs. It contains the
Athletic Director’s office, a coach’s office, two team rooms with plasma
screens for viewing game film, and a fully outfitted training room staffed by two full time certified trainers.
