Dub Herring Park
Dub Herring Park, affectionately known as "The Dub, has undergone several major renovation phases. After building a new press box with two luxury suites, 200 spacious chair back seats and a canopy to protect fans from the Mississippi sun in 2019, the Wildcats extended the seating toward both dugouts; PRCC added another 200 chair back seats and two more canopies.
Prior to the two major construction projects, PRCC also built a new press box and has upgraded both the locker room and player's lounge.
Marvin R. White Coliseum
After Pearl River's original arena was destroyed by Hurricane Katrina, PRCC rebuilt Marvin R. White Coliseum in 2014. The 35,400-square foot facility includes more than 2,800 seats and houses coaches offices, locker rooms, workout facilities, laundries and storage.
Pearl River installed four LED courtside scoreboards prior to the 2019-20 season. The 10-foot boards rotate ads and play videos, including player introductions.
Shivers Gymnasium
Shivers Gymnasium has a long history at Pearl River. The building was completed in 1949 and housed PRCC's basketball teams until 1972, when it was "taken offline" upon the construction of Marvin R. White Coliseum.
The facility briefly welcomed back the Wildcat basketball programs in the wake of Hurricane Katrina but most recently was earmarked for student activities on PRCC's Poplarville campus — until 2019.
Pearl River took the plunge in the Summer of 2018 and announced it would be the first MACJC school to field a volleyball program. Shivers Gymnasium was tabbed as a perfect home for the squad and in August 2019, the Volleyball Wildcats made their debut.
The facility was upgraded between Aug. 2018 and the team's debut, with the instillation of new coaches offices, locker rooms and a team meeting space.
Wildcat Stadium
Pearl River recently built a brand new clubhouse and hitting facility for the Wildcats. The structure sits just beyond right field of Wildcat Stadium and includes a player's lounge, coaches offices and batting cages.
Prior to the 2020 season, PRCC installed a new warning track and spruced up the dugouts.
