Stallworth Stadium

Stallworth Stadium is a stadium in Baytown, Texas. It is primarily used for American football and soccer, and is the home field of the Robert E. Lee High School, and Ross S. Sterling High School. Beginning in 2008 Goose Creek Memorial High School in the Goose Creek Consolidated Independent School District began using the stadium also.

The stadium holds 16,500 people and opened in 1969 when Memorial Stadium (now Sultis Stadium) on the Robert E. Lee campus became too small. Stallworth Stadium is on a neutral site and not on any of the three campuses in GCCISD.

October 29, 1976 President Gerald Ford attends a game between the Robert E. Lee Ganders and the Aldine-McArthur Generals. The President, on the campaign trail in Houston, stayed long enough to see the Ganders forge a 21-0 lead over the Generals en route to a 34-0 romp.

In addition, the Bayou Bowl, a high school all-star game between players from Louisiana and Texas, takes place annually at the venue. Starting in 2006, the stadium is occasionally used for middle school football games.

The stadium is also the home of the Baytown chapter of The American Cancer Society's Bay Area Relay for Life. Baytown has been the #1 Relay in Texas for the past seven years and the 2007 Relay was the #1 Relay in its six state region.

The stadium is among the largest non-collegiate fields in the state.

The stadium is named after Robert E. Lee High School coach Dan Stallworth.
