Interesting Fact: Miami University Redhawk baseball coaches needed more of an edge to succeed in today’s competitive recruiting landscape. The Jay Hayden Baseball Center was designed to immerse potential student athletes in an environment that reflects the positive values and winning tradition of the Miami Baseball program.

This $3.5M baseball facility provides team support services as well as an opportunity to immerse potential student-athletes in an environment that reflects the positive values and winning tradition of the Miami baseball program.
