Alfred and Helen Lamson Park
Often called the most beautiful and nostalgic field in the country by opposing teams who play on it, Lamson Park went through a $2.1 million renovation from 2009-11. The renovation included a new mostly-covered grandstand between dugouts, three private luxury boxes and a 50-seat Stadium Club. There was also the addition of more seating beyond the outfield fence. All of these new seats bring the capacity of Lamson Park up to 2,790.
Lamson Park has hosted nine NCAA Regionals (last was 2012) and the 2000, 2004 and 2011 Sun Belt Conference tournaments. The all-time Lamson Park attendance high occurred on May 20, 2012 in the Lafayette Regional Championship game vs. Stanford when 2,729 packed the park to see the Cajun win their seventh regional title with a 6-2 win over the Cardinal.
