On Nov. 20, the UNM Board of Regents approved construction for the $2.3 million R.D. and Joan Dale Hubbard Clubhouse.

“This has been a long process, but I want to thank the Hubbards, Scott Grady and his family, our administration, Vice President for Athletics Paul Krebs, and everyone on main campus that helped this project,” former UNM head coach Ray Birmingham said. “I could go on for hours thanking people because so many have helped make this possible.”

The R.D. and Joan Dale Hubbard Clubhouse was opened Dec. 28, 2016 and is located down the right-field line next to Lobo Baseball Field and includes locker rooms, restrooms, showers, a training room, storage and a player’s lounge.

Lobo Baseball Field received a major upgrade that started before the 2013 season. It received a FieldTurf playing surface, upgraded scoreboard, dugouts, bullpens, and bleachers as a part of the first phase of the Lobo Baseball Field renovation. Further renovations and phases will enhance the concessions areas, the fan plaza between Lobo Baseball Field and the softball field, the press box and the bleachers. Lights were installed in the fall of 2013.

“We have lights because of (former Lobo) Dee Dennis and a bunch of guys who chipped in to help me and Dee do this,” Birmingham said. “This is Lobo Field. This is (the state of) New Mexico’s baseball field, at least that’s how I feel about it. … There will not only be Lobo games on here, but there will also be state championship games here. We hope to bring in some great big tournaments over the years to this city and let our kids experience the world. We think New Mexico kids can get the rest of the experiences that the rest of the country has, then they will grow faster and realize they’re as good as anybody.”

While now-ABCA Hall of Famer Rich Alday was UNM’s head coach, his son Ambrose passed away at age 16 in 1995 from cancer. The Ambrose Alday Memorial Scholarship Fund was set up at New Mexico, and UNM’s hitting facility was officially named in their honor ahead of UNM’s home game on Feb. 23, 2024, with Norma and the Alday family honored pregame.
