Architect: Darden Architects, Inc.

In February 1995, work on several facilities for the California State University Fresno Women's Athletic Program were in various planning stages by Fresno Athletic Corp, the overseeing entity for the program. Given aggressive completion deadlines due to NCAA schedules and Title IX requirements, PMA's most critical task once on-board was to develop a comprehensive plan to complete the projects on schedule. For the women's softball stadium project, construction documents were at 50% completion, prompting PMA to employ a fast-track methodology for procurement and construction commencement to ensure both conformance with public bidding requirements and completion schedule requirements. Just 10 months after the start of construction, Bulldog Diamond opened on February 24,1996 to an NCAA record-breaking crowd.
