Boston College - Newton Campus

Nestled behind the law school on Boston College's Newton Campus is one of nation's elite soccer and lacrosse facilities.
Completely updated in 2008, the Newton Campus Soccer and Lacrosse Complex features a newly installed Polytan artificial playing surface.

Polytan surfaces are used at the World Cup Stadium in Stuttgart, Germany, the Olympic Stadium in Munich, the Football Academy FC Bayern, the Stadium La Maladiere in Switzerland and Warsteiner Stadium, host of the 2006 World Cup.

With the addition of the Polytan artificial playing surface, coupled with offseason updates that include permanent team benches canopied to guard against the elements and a 30-seat, enclosed press box complete with a roof-deck video-filming area, Boston College is proud to boast a brand new state-of-the-art facility.

The artificial playing surface made its regular-season debut on Aug. 29, 2008 with a men's soccer game against Boston University.

"The field is one of a kind in this country. It's absolutely a fantastic field. It shows the commitment of our University and our athletic director to put that kind of resources into our athletics programs."
- Head Coach Ed Kelly, Men's Soccer
