Location in the United States

It opened 46 years ago in 1974,[1] the year USC won its record fifth consecutive College World Series title, the sixth in seven years. It is named after longtime head coach Rod Dedeaux (1914–2006), who led the Trojans from 1942 until his retirement at age 72 in June 1986.[2] The elevation of the playing field is about 175 feet (53 m) above sea level.

The previous venue was Bovard Field,[3] which was about 500 yards (460 m) to the southeast. Bovard's home plate was located in today's E.F. Hutton Park and a large eucalyptus tree guarded the right field line.[3]
