Groundbreaking Ceremony to Celebrate Football Operations Center & Paulson Stadium Expansion
Mark your calendars for this Wednesday, June 5 at 11 a.m.
President Brooks Keel will host a groundbreaking ceremony for the Football
Operations Center and Paulson Stadium Expansion at the east end-zone of Paulson
Stadium.
Parking for the event will be available in the lot near the Bishop Field House and access to the field will be through Gate 4.
A $10 million privately funded project, the new Football Operations Center will house coaches’ offices, team meeting rooms, a video production suite, locker rooms, strength & conditioning space, rehabilitation center, equipment room and a football Hall of Fame within its 50,000 square feet. The center is scheduled for completion in April 2014.
In addition, the north stands of Paulson Stadium will see
improvements in the form of over 6,000 additional seats. The current on-grade seating will be expanded
by approximately 1,500 new seats and 4,500 will be added with the construction
of an upper deck. With this student-fee
funded expansion, seating capacity at Paulson Stadium will exceed 21,000
permanent seats. The stadium addition is
scheduled for completion in May 2014.
