Gymnasium Tennis Courts
The Sweet Briar tennis facility, one of the finest tennis facilities in the southern region, features 14 beautiful outdoor tennis courts. The facility has hosted two national tournaments and several Old Dominion Athletic Conference (ODAC) Championships. Seven of the 14 courts were resurfaced in the fall of 2005.

Vixen Softball Field
The newest athletic competition facility on campus, the Vixen softball field was completed in time for the first ODAC softball game in the spring of 2006. Dugouts were added in the spring of 2008, making this field one of the finest in the conference.
