John Cunningham Stadium
John Cunningham Stadium was a ballpark in San Diego, California, located on the campus of the University of San Diego. It was home of San Diego Toreros baseball, a member of the NCAA Division I West Coast Conference.
History
The park was built in 1970 and renovated in 2003. Renovations included the additions of synthetic turf in foul territory, a press box, and a public address system. The field had a capacity of 1,200 seats, all chair-backed.[1]
The stadium was dedicated in 1988 for former San Diego baseball coach John Cunningham. Cunningham was the Torero head coach for 34 seasons.[1][2]
John Cunningham Stadium was demolished and replaced by a new venue after the 2012 season. The new ballpark, Fowler Park, was built on the same site.[3]
