Cutchin Field History & Notes

Once the home facility for Murray State football, Cutchin Field has been the home of Murray State soccer since the program started in 2000.
Cutchin Field is located beside the Curris Center and across the street from Racer Arena.
The facility features a 72-by-114 yard Bermuda playing field, a state-of-the-art scoreboard, and a sprinkler system to keep the field perfect at all times.
Team shelters like those seen at the professional and world championship level are in place at both benches and the scorer's table.
In 2008, the Racers moved into the brand new Crisp Soccer-Tennis Complex. The new facility adjacent to Cutchin Field features locker rooms, coaches office, and athletic training space.
One of the charming features of Cutchin Field is that it is located in the middle of campus and is very accessible to students who attend matches in large numbers.
Cutchin Field was the home of Murray State football from 1924 to 1972. The Thoroughbreds - later to be called the Racers - won 142 football games here including the inaugural OVC championship in 1948.
The field is named for multi-sport coach Carlisle Cutchin, who was Murray State's second football coach (1925-30), and the first men's basketball coach (1925-41), and he also coached baseball at MSU (1928-32, 1941, 1946-53).
