Good points BDD, but here’s a summary of the football stadiums and, although CCSU is the currently the smallest, it should not take too much ($3 million) to upgrade and get capacity to about 7,500. It would still be on the small side, but it would be good enough to compete with the other schools.

Central Connecticut – Arute Field (Field Turf/3,500)
New bleachers, press box, and filed turf in 2000.

Albany – University Field (Natural Grass/10,000)
The field is not that good at all. Not many seats/bleachers, but plans for an upgrade.

Maine – Morse Field at Harold Alfond Sports Stadium (Astroturf/10,000)
Recently upgraded and possibly one of the top I-AA fields in New England.

Massachusetts - McGuirk Alumni Stadium (Field Turf/17,000)
Completed in 1965, huge capacity and will have new field turf for the 2006 season.

New Hampshire – Cowell Stadium (Natural Grass/6,500)
Built in 1952, a decent facility but by no means state of the art.

Stony Brook – LaVelle Stadium (Artificial Turf/8,200)
Completed in 2002 at a cost of $22 million, a perfect set up for CCSU.
