Alumni Field at Rinzler Student Sports Complex
Home of the Wright State Men’s and Women’s soccer programs as well as many high school games including Ohio High School Regional and State Tournaments, changes were made to Alumni Field in 2011 as it became part of the Rinzler Student Sport Complex. The project included the installation of synthetic turf and the construction of a new support building with restrooms, team rooms and concessions.
A new press box and bleachers were installed in 2015. The bleachers include 200 seat backs at midfield anchored by 550 bleacher seats.
Alumni Field, which has lights and seating up to 750, was originally dedicated in the fall of 1999 through the generous donation of the Wright State University Alumni Association.
