Discipline: Architecture + Interiors
Project Area: 100,000 sq. ft.
Awards: TASA/TASB Award for Architectural Excellence: DESIGN

This new, multi-purpose performance and athletic competition stadium accommodates 18,000 spectators around a sunken bowl with elevated deck on the home side. The venue is oriented north/south to minimize solar glare at typical afternoon playing times and provides two main entry points at the 50 yard line on home and visitor sides. The complex is also equipped with four secondary entry points at each corner of the stadium. The main concourse level is elevated above grade approximately 10 feet with the playing field resting approximately 15 feet below grade. This enables excellent visibility to the field from all spectator seating areas, as well as concession locations. The field is surfaced with a durable, synthetic multi-purpose turf system which provides excellent drainage performance. The stadium has been acknowledged as one of the largest, most comprehensive venues of its type in the United States.
