Dimensions
305' down the left field line quickly angles to 427' just left of dead center which is 408'. The right field gap is marked at 388' and angles to 312' down the right field line. The fence also varies in height: 20' high down the left field line for approximately the first 90' and then dropping to 10' throughout the rest of the park. Though the short left and right field fences provide an advantage for hitters, the long distance to the rest of the park makes it difficult to hit home runs.
Events
From May 22-26, 2012, the ballpark hosted the 2012 Great West Conference Baseball Tournament. Utah Valley won the tournament, finishing the season with a 29-0 Great West record. It is also occasionally used for concerts.
