Had a dorm roommate in 63 who played baseball a few seasons for the HERD. Told me that Coach Cook told them (team) that school higher ups were working on a facility for the program and that, hopefully, a facility shouldn't be too far down the road!! Seemed that lack of available sufficient land was the big issue/problem (along with the usual issue which always cropped up when it came to real progress at MU, "funding")!
