Carolina Stadium - Facility Overview

Facility Overview

The dimensions of the field are 325 feet (99 m) down the right and left-field lines and 390 feet (120 m) to dead center, matching those of Sarge Frye Field, the previous home stadium of the Gamecocks. The baseball training facilities at the stadium include four indoor batting tunnels, a 3,900-square-foot (360 m2) weight room, team clubhouse, coaches offices, and a sports medicine room. Among the numerous amenities for fans, there are five luxury suites and two club-level seating areas with lounges, a Gamecock store just inside the main entrance in the outfield plaza, along with a picnic terrace that accommodates around 120 people down the left-field line. The scoreboard towers 86 feet (26 m) over the left field wall and features a 28-by-16 foot video screen.

The main stadium entrance, to Carolina Stadium, is located at the northeast corner of the grounds directly behind the centerfield wall. Following the 2010 national championship, USC had a mural applied to the back-side of its centerfield wall, (to be viewed as visitors and fans enter onto stadium grounds), the mural celebrated the 2010 CWS Title. In addition a showcase was built at the base of the wall for the display of the 2010 CWS National Championship Trophy. The mural and trophy case have since been updated to honor both the 2010 CWS Championship Team and the 2011 College World Series Championship Team.
