Located deep in the heart of Texas, Tyler’s Mike Carter Field has been an icon of baseball in the Lone Star State for over 70 years. Hosting its first NJCAA DIII World Series in 2007, the “Rose Capital of the World” has quickly established itself as one of the top championship destinations that the NJCAA has to offer. Activities provided during the tournament include a Little League clinic instructed by World Series participants and a Texas-style banquet where coaches are provided with western apparel.
