Stadium

file:Lamar Soccer Complex - Stadium Grandstands.jpg

Construction on the Lamar Soccer Complex began in June, 2009. The first match at the stadium was against the New Mexico State Aggies on September 25, 2009. Approximate field dimensions are 115 yards x 70 yards. The stadium has permanent bleacher seating for 500. Covered benches are available for both teams. The stadium is equipped with lighting, an electronic score board, programmable irrigation, and a fertilization system.

The Lamar Soccer and Softball Complex building, approximately 10,000 sq ft in size, is located between the soccer stadium and the Lamar Softball Complex. It has locker rooms for home and visitors, training facilities, and coaches' offices for both sports. It also has ticketing and concessions. The 2014 and 2018 Southland Conference Women's Soccer Tournaments were held at the stadium.

Cardinal Stadium, now named Provost Umphrey Stadium following a major renovation, was the home field for the team's initial 2 seasons (2007 and 2008).
