History and architectural features

[edit | edit source]

Originally known as Biemesderfer Field, this sports stadium has been the home stadium of the Marauders' football team since 1958. It was designed and built for a price of $450,000 and opened in 1970.[1]

Biemesderfer Stadium was named for Daniel Luke Biemesderfer, who was Millersville University's ninth president from 1943 to 1965.[2]

In 1985, a lighting system was added to allow night games to be played at the stadium.
