See below for information on Mather Park (via CWRU Sports Information):

Mather Park is home to the Spartan softball team. In April of 2008, the facility was officially renamed after the Flora Stone Mather Alumnae Association transferred its endowment to Case Western Reserve University, spread over a number of areas, including the ballpark. In 2009, Glenn Nicholls, Vice President for Student Affairs, made a donation in honor of his late wife, Peggy, for a new press box. The field was dedicated on April 15, 2009.

The facility features a hand-manicured playing surface, which includes state-of-the-art Hilltopper artificial dirt on the infield, designed to allow for the field to be playable shortly after rain.  Other ballpark features chairback seating and bleachers to accommodate up to 250 fans, spacious dugout space, batting cages and a luxurious pressbox with high-speed internet access and a public address/sound system.

During the 2012 season, the Mather Alumnae Association once again provided a major upgrade to the facility with the donation of a state-of-the-art scoreboard.

All of these features make Mather Park one of the best Division III softball facilities in the nation.
