Roger williams baseball11/25/2023 ![]() I arrived just before Game 2, teams were warming up on the field, and on the sidelines talking to friends and family. On my left was the RWU Hawks multipurpose field, where there was a field hockey practice or scrimmage going on. ![]() I was glad that it was a short walk from the parking lot up to the athletic fields area, because I was seasonably underdressed with just a hoodie on. The Mount Hope Bridge was clearly visible when I parked and the wind coming across the campus was most definitely noticeable. ![]() There was a ton of campus activity going on when I arrived just before Game 2.įirst thing I noticed was the very chilly March wind coming off the water. From the road, you can see the baseball field on your right as well as the softball field. Then Exit 5 (used to be Exit 2) for Route 136, follow into Swansea, then Warren, then all the way down Metacom Ave into Bristol, then left into the Roger Williams University Athletic Fields parking area. On Saturday, I took what I thought was the most direct – 95North to 195East, into Massachusetts. Depending on your timetable, the town of Bristol can be reached by several routes. I was eager to get back to Bristol and take in the fan experience for a live baseball game. Just before the pandemic and college baseball seasons were cancelled in 2020, I was able to walk the campus, take some photos of the field, and check out the athletic facilities at Roger Williams. I mentioned “yet to attend a game” because I have been to Roger Williams University before to check out Paolino Field. Field day cleanups, high school scrimmages, local colleges and universities baseball action going on!!! However, since RWU was on my list of fields I had yet to attend for a game, I decided to take the drive out to Bristol for Game 2 – Roger Williams vs Nichols College. RWU was just one of a bunch of baseball games and events happening around Rhode Island yesterday. Coming into the weekend, the RWU Hawks squad had posted an impressive 10-1 record, having just returned from a very successful Spring trip in Florida. A doubleheader opening weekend matchup would feature the RWU Hawks Baseball team vs Commonwealth Coast Conference (CCC) rivals Nichols College at RWU’s Paolino Field. On Saturday March 26th (yesterday), The Roger Williams University (RWU) Baseball team welcomed family, friends, fans, and classmates to their first home games of 2022.
