H I S T O RY On October 28, 1958, the bid for Grand Junction to host the NJCAA Baseball World Series was accepted. For the last 54 years, the city of Grand Junction and Sam Suplizio Field have been a hallmark of the NJCAA and two-year college baseball. Some of the greatest names in the history of the game have played in the NJCAA World Series, including NL Rookie of the Year Bryce Harper, Cy Young award winners Cliff Lee and Eric Gagne, World Series MVP Curt Schilling and Hall of Famer Kirby Puckett.
