The field is named for Mark Light, whose father, University of Miami fan George Light, donated money for it’s construction. Mark Light died of muscular dystrophy.[2] and the field was dedicated in his honor in 1977.
Following a $3.9 million contribution by New York Yankees all-star Alex Rodriguez, the facility was renovated from 2007–09 and renamed.[3]
In 2013, the Hurricanes ranked 26th nationally among Division I baseball programs in attendance, averaging 2,635 per home game.[4]
Since 1973, the University of Miami has been one of college baseball's elite with 25 College World Series appearances,[5] winning four national championships (1982, 1985, 1999, and 2001) and advancing to the NCAA regionals a record 44 consecutive years.[6] Miami has won 29 NCAA Regional Titles, hosted 27 NCAA Regionals, and in each of their four national championship runs they were an NCAA Regional Host.[7]
