Elizabeth Dee Shaw Stewart Stadium is an outdoor multi-purpose stadium in the Western United States, located on the campus of Weber State University in Ogden, Utah. Originally Wildcat Stadium, it was renamed in 1998 for Stewart (1905–1996),[3] a notable campus and community benefactor.[4] [5]
Used primarily for football, the 17,312-seat venue is the home of the Weber State Wildcats of the Big Sky Conference. It was expanded in 1966 with the construction of the primary grandstand along the northwest sideline, nearly doubling its capacity.[1] [2] [6] The elevation of its synthetic turf playing field is 4760feet above sea level; aligned northeast to southwest, the field was natural grass until 2011.
Stewart Stadium is also the home venue for Weber State's outdoor track and field teams.
