When Southern Miss baseball fans pack Pete Taylor Park on Feb. 20 for the Golden Eagles’ season opener, they’ll notice some nice changes to the grounds.
Down the right-field line, a new concrete seating area will add around 300 seats with a good view of the field, and a deck area for grills will offer students a spot to tailgate during the game.
The batting cage area behind the bullpen on the left side is also getting a renovation.
The third baseline seating, which has long been used as the student section, will be general admission and the student section will be moved to the first baseline, directly behind the visiting dugout.
The changes come less than one year after the completion a state-of-the-art press box and 11 luxury boxes.
