McCulloch Stadium

McCulloch Stadium is a sports facility in Salem featuring a grandstand with press facilities, coaching offices, and locker rooms alongside a modern FieldTurf playing surface. The venue holds approximately 2,500 spectators and serves university football games, track events, and local competitions.

The facility opened in 1950 following a donation from Charles McCulloch in 1947 that made the athletic complex possible. Since its opening, it has served as the home for the university's sports programs and competitions.

This stadium serves as a gathering place for the university and local sports community, hosting football games and track competitions throughout the year. Events here bring students and residents together as part of the city's athletic traditions.

The stadium is located two blocks south of the university campus within Bush's Pasture Park, making it accessible from the surrounding area. Check ahead for scheduled events since access may depend on games or competitions taking place.

In 1997, Liz Heaston made history at this stadium by becoming the first female player to score points in a college football game. This moment marked a turning point for women in college football.
