FORT MYERS, FLA – Although competition doesn’t begin until the fall with baseball and softball, Florida SouthWestern State College (FSW) fans can visit the new athletics website to get the latest news and developments. The website is FSWBucs.com.
“This website will be the place for all Buccaneers fans to visit for schedules, coach and player profiles, and more,” said Carl McAloose, FSW Athletic Director. “Visitors can also learn more about our facilities, the City of Palms Stadium and the Suncoast Credit Union Arena. There is also a fan zone for everyone to follow us on social media.”
The Buccaneers will begin with fall 2015 exhibition competition in baseball and softball at the City of Palms Stadium in Fort Myers, the former spring training facility for the world champion Boston Red Sox. The Suncoast Credit Union Arena, set to begin construction this summer, will be the home for the Buccaneers men’s and women’s basketball teams, and the women’s volleyball team. The arena will also be a place for recreational and wellness activities for FSW students, as well as a place to host community events like graduations, concerts and tournaments. The arena is expected to open in the fall 2016.
