No longer just a vision, the Carl Smith Center, home of David A. Harrison III Field at Scott Stadium, is a facility befitting Virginia’s stature as one of the nation’s elite Division I-A football programs. It was dedicated at UVa’s 2000 season opener against Brigham Young on September 2.

Following a landmark $25 million challenge grant from UVa alumnus Carl W. Smith in June of 1997, the University of Virginia embarked on an ambitious three-year plan to renovate existing Scott Stadium and increase its capacity to over 60,000. The project was completed at a cost of approximately $86 million, with the balance coming from additional fund-raising and income generated by the stadium. Cont – Carl Smith Center Official Site
