Ad,

Great read! Baseball constantly provides opportunities to grow at both ends of the spectrum.  I grew up less than 2 hours from Enid.  Played several legion games and a few college games in Enid.  Is David Allen ballpark a completely new build or was it built on top of  the old Phillips University (I am guessing became NOC-Enid) field which If I remember correctly had a very unique layout, very short down the RF line with a green monster type fence in RF.

Thank you. David Allen Memorial Ballpark was newly built in downtown Enid near the year 2000. The NOC Enid campus is the old Phillips University and Failing Field still exists on campus. It serves as the daily practice field for the Jets. Occasionally a game is played there if there is a schedule conflict w/ DAMB. Your recollection of the the park and it’s layout is correct.
