Over the last several years, many needs have been identified and addressed at Carter-Finley Stadium. The football team needed a home at the stadium that combined locker rooms, team meeting rooms, academic study areas, dining, strength & conditioning, and coaches’ offices. These needs were addressed by the Wendell H. Murphy Football Center.
The fans needed additional seating areas with arm rests, cup holders, and chairbacks. Fans also needed a better way to see replays and live action. Amenity seating areas, such as club seats and suites, were also identified as areas of need. These items were addressed through the building of the North and South Endzone seating, the three large scoreboards that were added to the stadium, and through the building of Vaughn Towers.
Upgraded practice facilities were also added to the Carter-Finley grounds during the stadium renovations in the early 2000’s through the construction of three Dail Practice Fields.
The next step in the improvement of our football facilities is the construction of an Indoor Practice Facility. This facility will enhance the team’s ability to train in inclement weather and continue to improve, through rain, sleet, or snow. This facility will also reaffirm NC State’s commitment to becoming a successful football program.
The Indoor Facility will complement the three current practice fields by providing an indoor component to the outdoor fields that are currently used daily during practice.
