This year, UAB’s Softball team kicks off their season with new stands for the Mary Bowers Field, named in March 2016 after the late-Mary Bowers. 700 seats will be added to the stands to accommodate over a thousand fans. One addition to the stadium is the observation deck. These bleachers grant fans a view that goes from fence line to fence line, replacing the previous temporary and low-set bleachers.
