Harris Field
Harris
Field has been home to one of the most accomplished collegiate teams in the
history of baseball, and to some of the most memorable moments in the
history of the NAIA World Series. After years of baseball being played in
cow pastures and back yards, Harris Field, slowly evolving and improving
through the efforts of players, coaches, and volunteers, began to take its
current shape in the 1970s. It was named after a prominent Lewiston business
man and baseball enthusiast of the 1930s, Loyd Harris. Harris was known as
“Mr. Baseball”, and it was through his efforts that Lewiston has become the
baseball town that it is today. Although it has a seating capacity of only
5,000, Harris Field offers one of the most exciting and enjoyable ways to
watch college baseball. The record attendance was set in 2008 when 5,530
fans came out to watch the NAIA World Series championship game.
From the first pitch in February to the NAIA World Series games in late May,
Harris Field and the easygoing small town atmosphere of the Lewis-Clark
Valley give baseball fans a pleasant and memorable experience.
