College Stadium was the stadium for the East Carolina Pirates football team. It was built in 1949 for $25,000 ({{Inflation|US|25000|1949|fmt=eq|r=-3}}). The facility sat 2,000 spectators. The complex was razed in 1962 once Ficklen Memorial Stadium was built. It replaced Guy Smith Stadium as the primary football field.{{Cite news |last=Kammerer |first=Roger |title=Remembering East Carolina Homecomings |newspaper=Greenville Times |location=Greenville, North Carolina |date=October 26, 1994 |url=http://media.lib.ecu.edu/archives/pr_display.cfm?id=83&CFID=86642545&CFTOKEN=20584681&jsessionid=f030fe0ae2f3ce7862641f6b4c71725411f3 |access-date=August 3, 2010 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120314192833/http://media.lib.ecu.edu/archives/pr_display.cfm?id=83&CFID=86642545&CFTOKEN=20584681&jsessionid=f030fe0ae2f3ce7862641f6b4c71725411f3 |archive-date=March 14, 2012}}
