Orange & Black Ball Recap
The 17 th  Annual Orange & Black Ball, presented by Tuleburg, was another huge success for the Pacific Athletic Foundation (PAF). This year’s event attracted 633 attendees and our early estimates total the gross to be $190,000 while netting roughly $100,000 for our Pacific student-athletes!  The money raised will support the PAF Impact Fund, sport-specific operations, and the Janssen-Lagorio Performance Center.  Thank you to everyone who contributed to this event!

Janssen-Lagorio Performance Center Crowdfunding Campaign
Kathleen Lagorio Janssen and Dean Janssen, prominent Central Valley philanthropists and business leaders, have donated $1 million to University of the Pacific to expand the popular Janssen-Lagorio Gymnasium on the Stockton Campus, representing one of the most significant gifts to Athletics in the university's history.  The new Janssen-Lagorio Performance Center, slated to open in spring 2017, will provide state-of-the-art conditioning facilities and a "fuel station" offering quick and nutritious snacks for student-athletes.  crowdfunding campaign is underway to raise an additional $50,000 toward the $450,000 needed to complete, equip, and maintain the planned $1.45 million project, of which $300,000 has already been raised.
