Oxford-University Stadium

Oxford-University Stadium is one of the largest and most strikingly beautiful collegiate ball parks in the nation. Construction of the 22-year-old stadium began in 1988. 

Upon completion in 1989, the new Ole Miss baseball field was fittingly named Swayze Field in honor of the late Tom Swayze, one of the great legends in Ole Miss history. A three-year letterman in baseball at Ole Miss, Swayze later became head coach of the Ole Miss program. Swayze would lead Ole Miss to three NCAA College World Series appearances and four SEC Championships.

The ballpark underwent it's most recent renovation in 2009, undergoing an $18.5 million expansion. The expansion resulted in an increase of the overall number of seats to just over 6,000 and a total capacity exceeding 10,000.

Swayze Field is equipped with AAA lighting that is of higher quality than most minor league ballparks. Below the stands are coach's offices, locker rooms, player's lounge, press area. In 2006 a large video board was added that supplies fans with replays during the game.
