Henry Sand Field

The Eureka College baseball team calls Henry Sand Field its home. Settled into one of the most picturesque settings in all of Division III baseball, Henry Sand Field offers one of the finest venues to watch a sporting event on the campus of Eureka College.
 
Major improvements have come to the ballpark in recent times, including a new grass infield in the fall of 2017, new permanent seating behind home plate in the spring of 2019 and the installation of a state-of-the-art scoreboard beyond the left-center field fence in the spring of 2020.

Named after the 1932 graduate of Eureka College, Henry “Heinie” Sand, the facility boasts a two-level press box, including a spacious area for game operations and media. Sand was a three-sport student-athlete at Eureka, participating in football, basketball and baseball. He was a three-time All-Little 19 Conference selection in baseball as a catcher and went on to a career in professional baseball following his graduation. Sand was inducted into the Eureka College Athletics Hall of Fame in 1972.
