Erickson-Hall Breaks Ground on Palomar College Athletic Facilities 

Erickson-Hall Construction Co. joined more than 100 Palomar College faculty and staff, development team members, and community leaders for the groundbreaking of the college’s new football stadium and softball fields. The $22.8-million facilities at the San Marcos, California campus were designed by HMC Architects and funded by the $694 million Proposition M.

Construction on the football and softball stadiums is expected to last one year, with completion anticipated in October. The new athletic facility at Palomar College leverages the expertise of Erickson-Hall, a contractor for both K-12 and higher education programs.

The new football stadium will be able to host up to 3,600 fans, and will include a new synthetic turf field, scoreboard and a three-story press box with elevator. The stadium will also serve as a venue for large-scale events on campus, including commencement ceremonies, which have in the past been held in an open field adjacent to the campus. The new 207-seat softball stadium will include batting cages, bullpens, masonry dugouts, a scoreboard, a press box and a single-story fieldhouse.
