Alumni Softball Field

A new era began for the Fairfield University softball team in March 1999 when the Stags made the move from Barlow Field to Alumni Softball Field, a facility centrally located on the main campus. The field has two field-level dugouts, a bullpen in left field, a fully-functional scoreboard, and newly constructed press box. The field dimensions are 200 feet down the lines and 225 feet to center field. Fans can watch the action from bleacher seating located on the first base line as well as on the grassy hill that runs from right field into center field.
