MANSFIELD ISD
Vernon Newsom Stadium
Vernon Newsom Stadium is one of the district’s flagship facilities, centered in the heart of the community. It features a split, 2-level press box and a spacious, mid-level concourse that provides a means of entrance and egress from any of the four flanking ticket booths. The spectator grandstands are designed for maximum viewing, incorporating a slight skew on both ends that gives the facility a “bowl effect.” The design utilizes three different rise dimensions within the seating area. The playing field is situated in a north/south direction and is slightly angled to the west to take advantage of the prevailing winds and sun. It features state-of-the-art artificial turf with fully inlaid yard lines and markings.
