Bowers Stadium

Elliott T. Bowers Stadium is a 12,593-seat multi-purpose stadium in Huntsville, Texas, in the United States. The stadium has been home to the Sam Houston State University Bearkats football since 1986. Previously, the team played their homes games at Pritchett Field, which currently plays host to the University's women soccer team. The Bearkats are members of the Southland Conference. Bowers Stadium is also home to the Huntsville Hornets, the local high school team. The stadium recently added a video replay system scoreboard, an elevator leading up to the press box, and guest suites in the place of the old coach's press box section.

Bowers stadium was named in honor of Dr. Elliott T. Bowers, a former president of Sam Houston State University. The stadium is located on campus at Sam Houston State University. The address for Bowers Stadium is 620 Bowers Blvd, Huntsville, Texas.

In 2012, brand-new orange chairbacks were installed, replacing the older chairbacks previously in their place. New video graphics were designed and put in place for the video scoreboard as well.

The stadium includes several suites. In addition to the Presidential suite seating 50 people, there are five other suites in the press box third level. Two of the five can seat up to eight while the remaining three can seat up to six. Additionally, the Bearkat Lounge in the Ron Mafridge Fieldhouse can hold up to 100 and the adjacent deck can hold another 75-100 individuals.
