}}Radford Baseball Stadium is a baseball venue on the campus of Radford University in Radford, Virginia, United States. It is home to the Radford Highlanders of the NCAA Division I Big South Conference. The field opened in 1986 and underwent extensive renovations in 2011. Its capacity is 700 spectators.[1]

Other uses of the stadium include baseball camps[2] and high school baseball tournaments.[3]

History

The facility opened in 1986.[1] In July 2007, head coach Joe Raccuia assumed control of the program with plans for facility upgrades.[4]

Renovations beginning in 2008 led to reconstruction of the field.[1] In 2008, a new backstop was installed. Dugouts were enlarged and the playing surface improved in 2009.[5]

In 2011, the venue's name was changed from Radford Baseball Field to its current name, due to major renovations.[1] Branch and Associates, Inc. led a project to rebuild the stadium.[6] A seating structure with 700 chair-backed seats was added, in addition to a new concourse, press box, and PA system. New stadium lighting allowed night games to be played.[1] The construction project, which cost $800,000, was the first in Radford athletics history to use only private funding.[7]

Construction was completed during the 2011 season. The new stadium was officially opened for the program's first-ever home night game, on April 8, 2011, against VMI.[8][9][10]
