Louis Crews Stadium, Multi-purpose stadium in Normal, Alabama, United States.
Louis Crews Stadium is a football stadium on the campus of Alabama A&M University in Huntsville, Alabama. It features a playing field surrounded by an eight-lane running track, with covered grandstands on one side and open seating sections on the other.
The stadium opened in 1996 and was named after Louis Crews, who coached Alabama A&M football from 1960 to 1975. His time leading the program is considered one of the most formative periods in the university's sports history.
This venue serves as the home field for Alabama A&M Bulldogs football and hosts university graduation ceremonies along with track events. It functions as a gathering place where the campus community comes together to celebrate athletic achievement and academic milestones.
The stadium is accessible through the main campus pathways, with parking areas nearby. On game days and graduation events, arriving early is a good idea since spots around the campus fill up quickly.
In 2023, the playing surface was updated with a material that uses coconut husks instead of rubber pellets to keep the field cooler during games. This approach reduces heat buildup underfoot and is seen as a more environmentally friendly option than traditional infill materials.
