Home to the nationally ranked Saints baseball team,
the Baseball Complex is located between the NGCSU Softball and Soccer Complexes next to Radar
Ridge. Featuring a beautiful backdrop of the Dahlonega forests, the complex was constructed in 2000
when the baseball program was in its infancy. Since its original construction, the dugouts, field, and
amenities have undergone changes and upgrades over the past six seasons. Most recently, a new wind
screen was added to the outfield wall along with safety nets in front of the home and visitors dugouts
this summer. In 2005, the maintenance building was built along the left field fence to house grounds crew equipment and team supplies. A matrix board was also added above the scoreboard to give fans
statistics and game information. The Complex also features brick dugouts for home and visiting
teams, batting cages, and seating for 600 spectators. A 10-inning score board and eight light towers
highlight the baseball field to give excellent visibility during evening games.
