Hayward Field

Hayward Field is a track and field stadium at the University of Oregon in Eugene, Oregon. It has been the home of the university's track and field teams since 1921. It was the home of the football team from 1919 through 1966. It is one of three World Athletics Class 1 Facilities in the United States. Its elevation is about 420 feet (130 m) above sea level. Hayward Field was named after track coach Bill Hayward (1868–1947). He coached the school's track team from 1904 to 1947. The stadium has been redeveloped and renovated many times throughout its history. From 2018 to 2020, the stadium was entirely rebuilt. The money came from donations; Phil Knight, who is an alumni of the university, was the main donor. References
