The Lauren Anderson Softball Field, at Field 6 behind Hopkinton High School, was re-dedicated Saturday with a ceremony and a game pitting HHS alumni against current players.
The project included fixing up the field, refurbishing the scoreboard, adding bleachers, dugouts and benches, installing outfield windscreens and more.
Lauren Anderson died in a horseback riding accident in 1994, when she was a softball player at HHS.
