The Vision
Building on Southern Miss Baseball's Tradition of National Success
Pete Taylor Park has long been an intimidating destination for visiting college baseball teams. Southern Miss Baseball's tradition is rich and storied, and recent success on the national stage has further built upon a solid foundation. The stadium was originally constructed in 1984, and subsequent renovations have added bleacher seating sections, a new press box and suites, a new weight room, and several baseball program facilities.
In envisioning the future of Southern Miss Baseball, our approach emphasizes improvements to the fan experience, a variety of seating types, state-of-the-art baseball program facilities, and an elevated experience in the "Right Field Roost" with better views and a more intimate game atmosphere.
