The Stadium at Memorial Field is a multi-purpose stadium located in Mount Vernon, New York. [1]
The stadium is home to USL League One club Westchester SC, and has a capacity of 3,900. [2] [3]
The stadium opened in 1931, and was used by local high schools and youth sporting events. [1] Additionally, the stadium hosted boxing matches and concerts, including The Jackson 5 and James Brown.
The stadium was home of the Westchester Bulls of the Atlantic Coast Football League (ACFL) in 1967 and 1968. [4] The New York Crusaders of the ACFL played at the stadium in 1973. [5]
However, in the late 1900s, the stadium was in a state of disrepair.
In 2022, the field reopened after a $40 million renovation project that included renovated locker rooms, concessions, and facilities. [6] [7]
The first athletic event to be held at the newly renovated stadium was a high school football game between Mount Vernon High School and Yonkers Force co-op. [1] Mount Vernon won 32 to 24. [8]
The stadium is also home to the Monroe University football team.
Westchester SC, a professional soccer team set to make their debut in 2025, will play their home matches at the stadium. [2] [3]
