Attention: Media Membersand Opposing Schools

Since the consolidation of the University of Detroit and Mercy College in 1990, UDM athletic teams have found themselves referred to in many different forms.

In order to maintain consistency, we ask that the media continue to refer to us as UDM -- or use Detroit or Detroit Titans -- and eliminate the use of such abbreviations as U-D, U of D Mercy, Detroit Mercy, University of Detroit, etc.

When refering to Detroit women's intercollegiate athletic teams, please do not use the term "Lady Titans". All of our teams should be called the Titans.

Thank you for your cooperation and your continuing coverage of the Detroit Titans.

Titan Softball FacilitiesBuysse.Ballpark.is.home.to.the.Detroit.Titans.softball.team..Located.on.the.northwest.side.of .campus,.the.ballpark.features.stadium.steating.for.fans,.as.well.as.one.of .the.best.natural.grass.fields.in.the.Horizon.League..In.recent.years,.the.facility.has.continued.to.expand.with.the.upgrading.of .both.dugouts.and.the.addition.of .a.scoreboard..

In.the.summer.of .2008,.the.field.received.a.new.bullpen.and.hitting.cage.area.thanks.to.the.man.who.the.facility.is.named.after,.Roger.Buysse.

“All.of .the.praise.goes.to.Roger.for.his.contributions.to.our.program..We.would.not.have.what.we.have.withouth.his.continued.generosity,”.said.softball.head.coach.Sunny.Jones..

For.the.2011.season,.more.updates.came.for.the.ballpark.as.a.new.press.box.was.constructed,.the.field.received.new.dirt.on.both.the.infield.and.warning.track,.and.also.new.wind.screens.featuring.the.Titan.logo.

The.bullpen.and.hitting.cage.area.is.located.down.the.left.field.line.at.Buysse.Ballpark,.just.past.the.home.dugout,.making.it.easily.accessible.for.practice.and.in-game.use..

The.bullpen.section.features.throwing.lanes.complete.

with.a.netted.back-stop.in.which.two.pitchers.can.warm.up..The.hitting.cage.is.divided.into.three.individual.sections.which.are.enclosed.by.netting.with.extra.room.at.the.beginning.of .the.area,.allowing.players.to.use.multiple.stations.at.the.same.time..

“With.the.playing.surface.now.finished.and.the.addition.of .the.press.box.and.wind.screens.coming.for.the.upcoming.season,.Buysse.will.become.a.place.where.players.want.to.play,.”.added.Jones..

“I.am.pleased.with.our.facilities.and.believe.with.the.continued.changes.to.improve.it,.we.are.turning.our.

home.field.into.one.of .the.better.fields.in.the.Horizon.League.”

of .good.nutri-tional.habits.

Another.example.of .Detroit’s.commitment.to.its.student-ath-letes’.academic.excellence.is.the.Athletic.Aca-demic.Coordina-tor’s.post..Since.the.position.was.created,.UDM’s.graduation.rate.for.student-athletes.has.steadily.risen..Assistant.Athletic.Director.For.NCAA.Compliance.Steve.Corder,.no.stranger.to.collegiate.athletics.as.he.played.soccer.for.Detroit.from.1994-98,.and.his.staff .carefully.track.each.Titan’s.academic.progress.to.make.sure.they.are.on.the.right.path.toward.graduation..In.addition,.student-athletes.are.helped.with.their.tutorial.needs.through.the.use.of .the.student-run.Learning.Center,.where.professors.and.students.donate.their.time.as.tutors.
