Wagner College Stadium is a 3,500-seat multi-purpose stadium
located on the campus of Wagner College
in Staten Island, New York. Opened in 1967, the stadium is used for football, men's lacrosse, women's lacrosse, and track & field. Wagner College Stadium has 400 premium seat back chairs located at midfield. Below the stadium is a field house featuring several locker rooms, a training room, a equipment room, and public facilities. Surrounding the field is a six-lane synthetic track, allowing the college to play host to many major track & field events. The stadium was renovated as part of a $13 million dollar addition to the campus facilities in 1998. In 2006, the stadium's natural grass field was replaced with state-of-the-art Field Turf, a synthetic grass playing surface. There are plans in the works for the stadium to receive a new lighting system and scoreboard in the next few years.
