One of the premier collegiate baseball facilities in the Northeast, Smithson Field features a synthetic playing surface with a dirt pitching mound. The surface, AstroTurf 3D GameDay Grass, is the industry standard for baseball and is in use at Major League stadiums such as Tropicana Field, the home of the Tampa Bay Rays in St. Petersburg, Florida, and the Toronto Blue Jays' Rogers Centre in Ontario.

In addition to the field, the facility includes batting cages and a clubhouse located right next to the Hawks' home turf. Elevated bullpens are located in right field, with bleacher seating for 400 located behind home plate.
