Ross Memorial Park

Ross Memorial Park

Ross Memorial Park and Alexandre Stadium sit side-by-side and serve as a pivotal piece of facilities for W&J Athletics. Alexandre Stadium hosts the college’s men’s and women’s soccer teams in the fall and the men’s and women's lacrosse squads in the spring season, while Ross Memorial Park serves as home to the W&J baseball team.

Ross Memorial Park served as a regional host site of the NCAA Division III Baseball Mideast Regional four times (2015, 2016, 2017 and 2026). During the 2015-17 seasons, Ross Memorial Park was just one of eight regional sites across the country during those NCAA Championships. In 2026, NCAA Regionals returned to Ross Memorial Park for the first time in nine years, as W&J was one of 16 hosts across Division III baseball. 

The playing surface is entirely made of FieldTurf, a synthetic playing surface that W&J has used at Cameron Stadium since its renovation in 2001. A FieldTurf representative indicates that Ross Memorial Park and Alexandre Stadium combined represent the largest continuous artificial playing surface in the world.

The 233,000-square foot playing surface accommodates two full soccer/lacrosse fields. When not in use for soccer or lacrosse, this facility can be converted for use by W&J baseball. The baseball outfield overlaps one of the two soccer fields. By erecting a removable fence and revealing the base areas, the facility can be converted for use by baseball for games and practices.

Four hundred chairback seats surround Ross Memorial Park in addition to a spacious press box, state-of-the-art scoreboard, and a home locker room facility. Also, behind the backstop of the baseball field is a two-level structure that houses public restrooms on the bottom level while the upper level will boast a press box area, and a president’s box. 

Dimensions for Ross Memorial Park are 325 feet down the lines, 365 feet to the respective gaps and 390 feet to center field.
