Tennis, anyone?
Eagles tennis players are taking to a new court across town. UWL is partnering with the City of La Crosse, Coulee Region Tennis Association, and La Crosse Aquinas Catholic Schools in creating a community tennis complex. The 19 tennis court site at Green Island includes 13 outdoor courts and six inside a year-round dome. The $1.3 million outdoor courts (above) were completed last September with lights to be installed in the future. Construction of the $2 million indoor courts is set for 2022. Fundraising continues.

Fieldhouse running on track
Construction of the new student-funded fieldhouse is almost a year in and remains on schedule. The $49 million project east of Roger Harring Stadium will be used for student recreation, track and field competitions, and teaching exercise science classes. The facility is set to open in August 2022.
Transformative teacher: Renee Redman
UWL Biology Lecturer Renee Redman, shown in this 2018 photo, has received a 2021 Board of Regents Teaching Excellence Award — a distinction given to just two instructors annually in the UW System. "I work with such dedicated, creative and phenomenal teachers," Redman says. "I do believe this is a reflection of the work that is done in my department and at UWL.”
