The Class 1A and 2A state baseball tournaments will again happen this year in Carroll at Merchants Park. In February, the Iowa High School Athletic Association announced that it had extended its arrangements with both Carroll officials and the Univesity of Iowa’s Duane Banks Field, which will host the Class 3A and 4A tournaments.
“The enthusiasm, hospitality, and support demonstrated by the Carroll and the Iowa City and Coralville communities for our state baseball tournament in 2021 were absolutely outstanding,” – IHSAA executive director Tom Keating said.
Principal Park in Des Moines hosted the IHSAA State Baseball Tournament from 2005 through 2020. Major League Baseball now manages the schedule for Minor League Baseball, and facilities for Iowa’s MiLB affiliates are currently unable to make multi-year arrangements for the IHSAA’s predetermined tournament week.
