2008 NB Zip MLL Championship Weekend 

The centerpiece of Harvard’s outstanding athletic facilities is Harvard Stadium, which has stood as a Boston landmark for more than a century. Harvard Stadium was constructed in 1903 and hosted its first game November 14 of that year. Since then, the Stadium has hosted more than 600 Harvard football games as well as hundreds of other athletic and non-athletic events, including Olympic soccer, NFL football, rock concerts and political rallies. The Stadium is a horseshoe containing architectural elements of a Greek stadium and Roman circus and is considered an engineering marvel. It was the world’s first massive reinforced concrete structure and the first large permanent arena for American college athletics. With a seating capacity of 30,898, Harvard Stadium is praised for its outstanding sightlines. The Stadium was upgraded in 2006 with the addition of a FieldTurf playing surface, permanent lighting and a removable all-weather bubble which allows for use of the facility throughout the calendar year.
