Clark Field, Sports stadium at University of Texas, Austin, United States.
Clark Field stadium featured wooden bleachers and accommodated 20,000 spectators on the southeast corner of 24th Street and Speedway in Austin.
The stadium opened in 1887 as Varsity Athletic Field and received its current name in 1904 to honor University of Texas regent James Benjamin Clark.
Between 1896 and 1924, the Texas Longhorns football team recorded 135 victories, 23 losses, and 3 ties at this sports ground.
The stadium hosted football, track, baseball, and basketball games until teams gradually moved to newer facilities, including Memorial Stadium in 1924.
The limestone cliff across left and center field created a natural obstacle, with a small path called Billy Goat Hill allowing outfielders to retrieve balls.
