"Budget cuts forced Southern Colorado to drop its program in 1984. Athletic director Dan DeRose not only brought back baseball but put the team in a new 50-acre, $ 2 million complex that includes Rawlings Field for baseball, a soccer field, a 500-car parking lot and a three-field softball complex. The softball and baseball fields have lights."
