Field surface: not yet verified. The Town of Somerset lists the Ashton fields on its field permit application but doesn't say whether the infields are dirt or turf, so we haven't confirmed the surface. (3 softball fields (Ashton 1, Ashton 2 and Ashton 3) at the Roy & Alma Ashton Sports Complex, permitted through the Town of Somerset Recreation Department. It's the tournament home of the Somerset Berkley Softball League.)
