Two Campuses: Downtown on left, Evansdale on right-click to enlarge A good view of the two campuses and the unique Personal Rapid Transit (PRT). In order to gain an understanding of how Mountaineer Field sits in the Campus you must first become familiar with the two campuses. It stands near the corner of Interstates 68 and 79, but the more important intersection historically was the confluence of the Monongahela River and Decker's Creek.” The city is located in the north central part of West Virginia, within 10 miles of the Pennsylvania border and 30 miles from Maryland. When school is in session, Morgantown's population jumps from 29,000 to 50,000. It is very similar to how Blacksburg, VA takes to the Hokies.įrom the Regional Research Institute: “WVU is easily Morgantown's leading employer. Since Morgantown is relatively small, the whole town is involved with the Mountaineers. West Virginia offers a tremendous Football Game day environment. This link has some good directions from the interstates. Here is a sample list of travel times by car: Pittsburgh 1 ¼ hrs, Washington DC 3.5 hrs, Cincinnati 5.5 hrs, Syracuse 7 hrs, Northern New Jersey 7 hrs.

Probably the easiest way to fly there is to fly in and out of Pittsburgh International and rent a car.įor the rest of us, we drive from our homes. Morgantown has scheduled service with United with daily flights to Washington DC (Dulles-IAD) on commuter aircraft. The airfares into Morgantown (MGW) can be very expensive. For the rest of us it is much more involved. If you’re a Pitt fan, finding Morgantown is easy and fairly painless.
