The Cal State Los Angeles Golden Eagles (also Cal State LA Golden Eagles) are the athletic teams that represent California State University, Los Angeles in NCAA Division II intercollegiate sports. The Golden Eagles compete as members of the California Collegiate Athletic Association for all 10 varsity sports. Cal State LA previously competed in Division I and was a founding member of the Pacific Coast Athletic Association in 1969, leaving in 1974 but not before winning the conference's basketball title and participating in the NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament.

Cal State LA's more than 11 acres (4.5 ha) of athletic facilities is named the Billie Jean King Sports Complex. The sports complex—designation which was approved by the CSU Board of Trustees Sept. 21—features the Eagles Nest Gymnasium, the University Stadium, Jesse Owens Track and Field, Reeder Field (baseball), the swimming pool, and tennis and basketball courts.[2]

History

[edit]

The Eagles Nest is home to the Cal State LA basketball and volleyball teams. The arena seats just over 3,200 fans at full capacity. In 1984, the Eagles Nest hosted the Summer XXIII (23rd) Olympics judo competition. In July 1984 the Olympic Mural, “Olympic Fantasy,” a mosaic tile work by muralist Guillermo "Bill" Granizo, was installed on west side of the arena in remembrance of the event.[3][4][5]

The Fight Song

[edit]

The Fight Song Golden Eagles! We're behind you all the way. Golden Eagles! Black and Gold is here to stay. Golden Eagles! Now it's on to win the day. We will fight, fight, fight. Fight with all our might for Cal State L.A.!

–Fran Baxter

Billie Jean King Sports Complex

[edit]

Two-story, 8,500 sf facility is sited between the CSULA stadium running track and the university tennis center. The lower level women's and men's locker / training facilities and the public rest rooms are accessible for use by both the stadium and the tennis courts. This allows the university soccer, track and field and tennis teams to share the facilities. The upper level contains both the CSULA Sports Hall of Fame and a hospitality suite with a small serving kitchen. This level is enclosed with floor to ceiling windows and contains a covered outdoor terrace for uninterrupted viewing of both the tennis courts and the stadium soccer field and track. The site surrounding the building includes grandstands for viewing tennis and an outdoor assembly area for university events.

Baseball Field

[edit]

The baseball field was officially renamed as Reeder Field in honor of baseball coach Jim Reeder. Reeder never had a losing season prior to his untimely death in January 1972.

John Herbold

[edit]

On January 3, 1998, Cal State LA head baseball coach John Herbold was inducted into the American Baseball Coaches Association (ABCA) Hall of Fame during the ABCA's national convention in San Diego, CA.

Herbold was later honored by Cal State LA Intercollegiate Athletics for becoming baseball coach with the most wins in University history. Cal State LA has won 398 baseball games since he became head coach in 1984. The previous record of 397 wins was held by Jim Reeder, for whom the baseball field is named.
