WINS BY THE GREEN WAVE IN THE
FRIENDLY CONFINES OF GREER FIELD
AT TURCHIN STADIUM
The crown jewel of Tulane University’s athletic facilities, Greer Field at Turchin Stadium will serve as home for the
Green Wave baseball team.
The brand new, state-of-the-art facility opened in 2008 and was built for a cost of $10.5 million and is named in honor of
Philip Greer and Robert and Lillian Turchin - the namesake of the old Turchin Stadium.
A pro-style stadium with a capacity of 5,000, Greer Field at Turchin Stadium features a grandstand design of structural
steel, which increases the number of chair-back seats from 900 to over 2,700. In addition the facility also features private
suites, an open-air club suite, a partially covered seating area and a new press box. The Green Wave’s facility also features
a different playing surface in FieldTurf - the same surface used by several Major League Baseball and NFL stadiums.
The FieldTurf replaces the natural-grass surface that the old Turchin Stadium had since its opening in 1991. The entire
field, with the exclusion of the pitcher’s mound, is FieldTurf, which all but eliminates the possibility of inclement weather
making the field unplayable.
Four private suites flank the breezeway on the first- base line and include air-conditioned kitchenette and restroom
facilities. Suites are sold on multi-year leases and are accessible via elevator, which also provides access to the press
box. For the first time, the press box includes individual broadcast booths, Ethernet capability and expanded space for
the print media. An updated sound system, a new padded outfield wall, concession stands, restrooms and an expanded
merchandise sales area make the facility one of the finest in the nation. The lighting system, the line-score portion of the
scoreboard and the Theresa Sofio Hitting Facility are the lone holdovers from the old Turchin Stadium, and nearly every
other area of the stadium has been replaced as part of the construction.
The exterior of the stadium is more fan-friendly, as well, as the fans enter the stadium via Goldring Plaza.
The Plaza features commemorative bricks purchased in a fundraising drive by Tulane’s die-hard fans. Inside, a new video
board was installed above the scoreboard in left field, which will allow Green Wave fans to enjoy video clips, in-game
replays and updated statistics of the teams playing that day. Along with the esthetics of Goldring Plaza, the corridors of
Greer Field at Turchin Stadium feature oversized images of some of the Green Wave’s most memorable moments on
the diamond.

The Mickey Retif Memorial Clubhouse, located on the second floor of the James W. Wilson, Jr. Center, also underwent
a complete overhaul and now features 40 wooden lockers, nine flat-screen television sets, DVD and VCR players, and a
CD/Stereo system. The clubhouse also features a keypad entry system that gives the student-athletes unlimited access, a
player’s lounge, shower facilities and a locker room for the coaching staff.
Since moving to its current location for the 1991 season, Tulane’s home field has been a true advantage as the Green
Wave sports a .750 winning percentage in games played within its friendly confines. The old Turchin Stadium has played
host to the 1992 Metro Conference Tournament and the 1997 and 2003 C-USA Tournaments as well as the 2001 and
2005 NCAA New Orleans Regionals and the 2005 NCAA New Orleans Super Regional.

Home-field advantage came into play in all six tournaments with the Green Wave winning the 1992 league championship
and all three NCAA events while advancing to the semifinals in 1997 and the finals in 2003.
The Green Wave baseball team has played in the current vicinity for more than 40 years. The ballpark was originally
named Tulane Diamond and was located about 100 feet south of its current location,
Up until 1985, the dimensions were 347 and 353 to the power alleys in left and right field, respectively. The new park
measures 325 down the lines, 370 to the power alleys and 400 feet to straightaway center. The old outfield wall will be
replaced with a new padded wall to help ensure the safety and well being of both the home and visiting teams’ studentathletes.
Lights were originally added in 1991 with eight banks of between 22 and 30 lights illuminating Turchin Stadium. Also
new to the stadium in 1991 was the addition of permanent seating, a luxury box, a press box and a state-of-the-art computerized scoreboard.
Prior to the 2015 season, two video lineup boards were installed near the entrance of the stadium, providing fans with a
digital look at the conference standings, as well as the lineup for that day. Additionally, a new $600,000 scoreboard will
be installed during the fall of 2015. The state-of-the-art scoreboard will be one of the biggest in the nation at nearly 1,430
square feet.
The Theresa Sofio Hitting Facility
- or the Hack Shack - is home to
Tulane’s indoor hitting cages.
The Hack Shack houses four
batting cages, two pitching
mounds, a tee and toss area and a
coaches’ evaluation location.
The Milton J. “Mickey” Retif Jr.
Memorial Clubhouse features a
lounge area with televisions,
sofas and chairs.
Oak-recessed lockers surround a
ping-pong table in “The Mick”.
