The Athletics Park (soon to be known as Edwards Field), located where Branch Rickey Arena and Gordon Field House stand today, becomes home of the baseball, football and track teams. The grandstand at the Athletics Park opened on June 7, 1890, and that fall, a fence was erected along the south side of the grounds. Games prior to this point were played at a variety of sites. One popular site was the hollow between present-day Phillips Hall and Delaware Run on the eastern edge of campus, another was north of Monnett Hall, the site of present-day Austin Manor.
