Kennesaw State University Athletics

Kennesaw State baseball makes it’s home on campus at Stillwell Stadium. A classic baseball field, Stillwell Stadium, named for longtime friend and KSU supporter Fred Stillwell, has been the home of the Owls since 1984, the first season of Kennesaw State baseball.

The state-of-the-art Bobbie Bailey Athletic Complex houses Stillwell Stadium and possesses a spacious clubhouse for the Owls. Wooden lockers with lock boxes, customized stools, an expanded training room; a weight room and large team lounge offer the Owls a vast array of amenities.

Stillwell Stadium’s most outstanding characteristic is its view of Kennesaw Mountain from center field.  The 1,808-foot high national landmark sits in the backdrop behind home plate and is visible from the outdoor hospitality deck behind the left field fence.

Head coach Mike Sansing and his staff have the best view of the stadium from their offices, which line the left field fence. The impressive view of the stadium and its unique backdrop offers Sansing and his three assistant coaches the best possible setting to recruit and tend to the everyday affairs of running a top-notch Division I baseball program. 

Stillwell Stadium holds 1,200 fans with seating that encompasses the stadium from the right field bullpen to the Owls bullpen down the left field line. One of the most unique features is the close proximity of the stands and the press box to the field. Fans are reminded of the old days of baseball as seating is closer to the action than most any field in the south.

The stadium is 331-feet to the left field pole and is 370-feet to left center field. Straightaway center field is 400-feet with the right-center field alley 367-feet and 330-feet down the right field line. A uniform eight-foot wall lines the outfield and in left field the façade of the Bobbie Bailey Athletic Complex rises nearly an additional 20-feet above the fence.

A 500 square-foot press box can accommodate visiting team media as well as local media and has two private broadcast booths. Installed prior to the start of 2011 season, Stillwell Stadium features a large inning-by-inning scoreboard that allows for player head shots, fan prompts and advertisements.
