WEBER STATE FOOTBALL

ELIZABETH DEE SHAW STEWART STADIUM

Located on a hillside above the city of Ogden, and with the waters of the Great Salt Lake shimmering in the distance, there are few stadiums anywhere which can match the natural surroundings as well as Elizabeth Dee Shaw Stewart Stadium located on the campus of Weber State University. With recent improvements and upgrades, Stewart Stadium is now one of the finest stadiums in all of Division I FCS football. In 2011, a new state-of-the-art artificial turf field and a new track were installed at Stewart Stadium, thanks to a generous donation from Robert and Annette Marquardt. A new efficient lighting system has also been installed which has created more light on nighttime events. Weber State opened a new 38,000 square foot Sky Suites & Press Box complex in 2001. The facility includes 26 sky suites, club seating, a press box facility for media and game operations as well as meeting spaces. The Sky Suites and Press Box complex was built thanks to a generous donation from the Stewart Education Foundation. Since opening in 2001 the facility has hosted many campus and community meetings and events, as well as weddings, dances and other outside events. Stewart Stadium seats 17,500 fans and is also the home of the Weber State Athletic Department offices. The facility also features a study area specifically for all WSU student-athletes. Full football locker rooms and new training rooms also add to the amenities of the stadium. Stewart Stadium has been the home of Weber State football and track and field long since the 1950’s when the new campus of then Weber Junior College was built. The stadium was one of the first structures built on the new campus. In 1966, the west stands were added. In addition to Wildcat Athletic events Stewart Stadium has hosted numerous community events including concerts and religious performances. In 1998 the band Metallica performed. In the summer of 2010 the stadium was filled to capacity for a community religious performance. The stadium has been home to motor cross events, lacrosse games and has hosted the Utah State High School football championships.

He started the Champions Club with six initial donors that provide needed resources designed to enhance the athletic programs. In addition, Bovee has overseen growth in fundraising and facility upgrades. Several key facilities have been improved during his tenure. Each of Weber State’s 16 sports have benefited from facility improvements primarily in Stewart Stadium and at the Dee Events Center. In addition, the tennis facility has been enhanced as well as the creation of a state of the art indoor practice facility for men and women’s golf. The Marquardt Fieldhouse opened in 2013 and provides student-athletes opportunities to work year-round indoors. The facility also includes a state of the art strength and conditioning room, a training room and team rooms as well as rehabilitation areas. Future improvements are planned at Stewart Stadium geared toward improving the fan experience. Bovee has overseen growth in season ticket sales in football and men’s basketball. In addition, he has restructured the marketing and promotions operations for athletics, which has increased the corporate sponsorship base by over a half of million dollars since 2009. Bovee led the initiative in 2012 to update the athletic logo and mascot in an effort to enhance the branding opportunities for Weber State Athletics. In 2011, Bovee was appointed to the NCAA Committee on Academic Performance and continues to serve a four-year term in assisting the NCAA’s initiative to improve graduation rates of student-athletics for all Division I schools.

In addition, he has successfully supervised the initiative to improve the Academic Performance Ratings for Weber State’s 16 athletic teams. During Bovee’s tenure with the Wildcats, Weber State has captured several conference championships. The Wildcat men’s basketball team won the Big Sky title in 2010 and 2014 and advanced to the NCAA Tournament each season. The Weber State women’s cross country team has captured three Big Sky titles and advanced to the NCAA Championships all three seasons.
