Loren Campbell Memorial Field has been home to the baseball team for more than 50 years and is one of the oldest athletics facilities on campus. In 1982, the field was named after former athletic director and coach Loren Campbell, who worked for New Paltz from 1932-68. Over the last decade, the baseball field has received many renovations, and become one of the top collegiate fields in the region.
Campbell Field has a premium playing surface for baseball only with a natural-grass playing field. The infield, game mound and plate areas all consist of beam clay, while the warning track consists of crusher. In addition, both bullpens have double pens. A padded backstop sits behind home plate.
In 2012, the field was resodded and resurfaced with Kentucky Blue Grass, the clay was replaced on both the basepaths and the pitcher's mound, bullpens were renovated, and a new scoreboard was installed.
