Memorial Stadium
4709 Barnett Rd., Wichita Falls, TX 76310
Memorial Stadium, which seats more than 14,500 spectators, has also played host to the annual Oil Bowl Classic all-star game which once featured top senior prep prospects. The field and drainage system was replaced in 2012 with Desso iDNA artificial turf laid down as the new surface. New goalposts, adjustable to both collegiate and high school play were added as well. Along with the new turf in 2012 came a new scoreboard that included a 14′ x 36′ video board to enhance the live game experience. The stadium is equipped with a two-story press box with booths for both broadcast and print media as well as space for visiting coaches and dignitaries. Ticket offices are located on the east and west sides of the stadium with the media and player will call windows located on the west (home) side and the visitor will call window on the east side. Memorial Stadium is located on the southwest edge of Wichita Falls near the intersection of Southwest Pkwy. (Texas Highway 369) and Barnett Road. Regarded as the bastion of football facilities in the gridiron crazed State of Texas, Memorial Stadium remains one of the finest venues in the Lone Star Conference. The venue has served as host to 10 Pioneer Bowls which featured three NCAA Division I-AA national championship contests and a pair of NCAA Division II titles.
