Hiram College

Fishel Field at Proverbs Park

Fishel Field at Proverbs Park is home to Hiram baseball. Located to the northeast of the Coleman Sports Center, Fishel Field was originally named in honor of Robert O. Fishel, Class of 1936, former executive vice president of the American League of Major League Baseball. 

On October 21, 2017, Robert O. Fishel Field was then renamed to Fishel Field at Proverbs Park to also honor long-time Hiram baseball coach Bill Proverbs. Proverbs coached the Terriers for 32 seasons and led Hiram to four conference championships, three Ohio Athletic Conference Championships, and one Presidents' Athletic Conference Championship, during his tenure.

The facility features large dugout areas as well as bleacher seating for spectators and a press area. With the renaming of the field, Hiram also added a warning track and fencing around the entirety of the park in the fall of 2017.

In 2021-22, a new scoreboard was unveiled thanks to the generosity of Doug `82 and Julie Gruber, and a paved path and stairs were built from the parking lot by the tennis courts, to the field, to allow for easier access and better accessibility.
