In 1936, the seating capacity was increased at Haygood Field on the campus of Henderson State Teachers College in Arkadelphia (Clark County), shown here. With the increase in size, the facility was renamed Haygood Stadium, the name still honoring longtime football coach Jimmy Haygood. The stadium continued to host football and other events until the construction of Carpenter-Haygood Stadium in 1968.
