Brooks Stadium completes first phase of expansion

Coastal Carolina University's Brooks Stadium completed the first phase of its construction expansion with the addition of 5,800 seats, bringing total capacity to 15,500 – just in time for the Sept. 2 season opener against UMass (The Chanticleers won 38-28).

Construction began in early March, with seats being added to connect seating on both sides of the Adkins Field House, expanding the lower sections on both sides and expanding the upper deck on the east side/press box side to match the lower deck.

Phase II will add a luxury suite seating 300 to 350 with 230 outdoor club seats, more seats on the upper deck on the west side and a new entrance at the corner of S.C. 544 and University Boulevard.
