The Yellow Jacket softball team calls Sal Hench Field home. The field was built in 1999-2000 in honor of long-time supporter of the College and DC athletics, Sal Hench. The field features on-field bullpens as well as a two-story press box with a concession stand, All-Conference “Wall of Fame” and full sound system.

The outfield dimensions are 210 feet all around with a 28-foot by 12-foot inning-by-inning scoreboard in right field, which was installed in the spring of 2026. 

In the fall of 2016, the softball field received a facelift with a brand new infield surface which was laser leveled and an improved Dura Edge classic infield mix with red Pro Slide top dressing.
