Potential for Marshall baseball stadium among proposals

Marshall baseball technically has three home fields, but none on or even near campus. With a recent proposal by the city of Huntington, Marshall baseball may have a field in the not-too-distant future.

The city of Huntington is looking to transform several former industrial properties between Third Avenue and the Ohio River. The proposal includes several different zones. The University Park Developmental Zone from 20th to 22nd street, which is past the Joan C. Edwards Stadium behind the Dot Hicks Softball Field, is the part which includes the proposed new baseball field. This part of the overall plan would be to improve the appeal of Marshall University.
