Homer Bryce Stadium, located in Nacogdoches, Texas, is the home of SFASU's Lumberjack football and Ladyjack and Lumberjack track and field events. The stadium includes a walking and running track open to the public. Recent renovations to the area include a sports medicine and academic center addition to the field house that houses the new athletic training program and the installation of a new artificial turf surface provided by a donation from a former Lumberjack football letterman. A state of the art video board with replay screen is scheduled for completion in September 2006.
Opened in 1973, the stadium comfortably seats 14,575 fans. Using the hill surrounding the playing field ups the capacity to nearly 24,000. Homer Bryce Stadium is also home to many premier high school football playoff matchups and track meets.
