Not sure at the moment but I know that in a year or two, Jasper will be in the running. Ever since they won state in '07 they have gotten an increased budget and are in the process of remodeling the stadium a little at a time. It was already pretty good. It is still the only one that I have seen with a roof over the fans.

Burnet has a new baseball and softball facility that was mostly underwritten by a local families donation. It is quite nice and we are looking forward to seeing it used for years to come.

Locke Field in Gainesville is by far the best 3A baseball stadium in the state

NO, the best in the state is Moffett Field in Snyder. Teams stand in line for an opportunity to play their playoff games there every year.

They are new to 3A, but don't forget Mineral Wells! It almost looks like a twin to Graham, which is very nice too!

Grahams stadiums were by far the best I have seen in the 4 years my daughter played but their field still needed work, it was not in great shape but I think it was still a work in progress. Snyder has the best baseball "field" I have seen but their softball field and facilities were a joke. Snyder needs to be fair to the girls...

Seminole has a nice baseball field, and from what I hear the girls just got a brand new field this past year. Looked pretty good from the road.

LaGrange has one of the newest and nicest stadium I have seen.

yea our baseball field got a few new additions last year but still im sure if you drive the gator in the wrong spot in right field, you will bust the water line...i swear its like an inch under ground.

I'll vote for La Grange. Very very nice from field, to seating, to concession, to restrooms, to parking. Columbus is nice also.

Larger venue, i know. but I have seen alot of stadiums.............
Some that "wowed" me over the years:

University of Arkansas in Fayetteville
TCU (ft worth tx)
Mariners training facility Peoria/Phoenix, Arizona

Field of Dreams Baxter Springs Kansas a mom and pop run donated land, donated everything facility Middle of nowhere, small handwritten sign "Baseball Game Today" marking where you turn to go through a cornfield, over rr tracks and there it is. Beautiful manicured baseball field, complete with concessions and immaculate covered concrete stadium seating.

lol yeah. They made some pretty good improvement with the wall, dugouts, scoreboard, and the overall quality of the field. There have been a lot of talks about a new baseball field and I could see it going through within the next year. As far as the softball facility, you really count ask for more.

La Grange fields are very nice and your price is very close just under $2.5 millon. It will be a joy watching my son play on it for the next 4 years, will post pictures as soon as I find them posted some last year.

Gainesville's used to be the home of a minor league team in the 50's and Elvis even played at it once.

After seeing the photos of Graham's stadium and hearing people say it's the best. I have no doubt that Gainesville's is the best in the state. I can't find any pictures but imagine Grahams but with a 1950's vibe

No way. I've seen that stadium, the stands and field need updated.

For a small 3A, Orangefield has built two new fields for Softball & Baseball.

There complex is well thought out and of superior design; it is quite functional.

I'll second Mineral Wells — saw it in the playoffs and it's pretty sweet. I think it has a little more capacity than Graham's, but it's basically identical.

Kennedale has a nice baseball stadium as well. The field Van Alstyne uses is in a city park, but it's really nice and has trees and picnic tables nearby. For a while Decatur had the best 3A stadium in the area and was a playoff destination. That stadium is a bit older, but I remember it being pretty good.

very nice LaGrange.

Burnet just built a new complex for both baseball and softball and it looks incredible.

University of Arkansas is fabulous, but there is a big parking snafu when they hold the NCAA Indoor T & F Championships next door to the baseball stadium.
