The
new Weaver Track and Field Stadium debuted in the spring of 1996. The novel
configuration of the new complex has several advantages for Princeton's track
and field program. It allows for more running lanes, wider lanes and a great
radius on the turns. The track's north straightaway has starting chutes at both
ends so that sprints and hurdles can be run in either direction, depending on
the wind.
JBC helped to symbolically preserve Princeton's 129-year football tradition
when the original playing field from Palmer Stadium, which was being demolished,
was used to construct the new Weaver Field.
