History[edit]

The Steller field at Gary Haas Stadium entrance

Steller Field was built in 1964 and cost $150,000 to construct. Steller Field has seen renovations in 1965, 1968, and 2002, which has expanded the capacity of 2,500.[2] In fall 2012, a new electronic scoreboard was installed at the facility, and the backstop was renovated.[3][4] In October 2019, the stadium surrounding the field was named the Gary Haas Stadium, after former BGSU baseball player Gary Haas.[5] This changed in December of 2021 when the BGSU board of trustees voted to remove the name.[6][7]

Other uses[edit]

From 1987–1991, the field was home to the Great Lakes Summer Collegiate League's Bowling Green Breeze. In 2008, another Great Lakes Collegiate Summer League team, the Lake Erie Monarchs, used the field for a single season.[8][9]
