New Building Sparks Field Realignment

Football field 10 feet too close to visitors' side

Against Yale in Harvard Stadium, the football team has a 20-22-3 record, while overall the team's record is 370-197-34, Veneziano said.

But Veneziano said a larger sideline has its perks.

"We've had the advantage of having more sideline room for our trainers [and] positional huddles," he said.

The most important part of winning is the players who perform on the field Veneziano said.

"I think the record will continue to improve because we're fielding a real good team this year," he said.

The Ivy League Champion football team will get its first chance to play on the recentered field on October 3 against Lehigh.

Veneziano said the recentering is true to the original vision of the stadium, which was built in 1903.

"Now I think the [field] captures the building and vice versa," Veneziano said. "The best stadium in the country just got better."
