W.B. Mason Stadium is a 2,400-seat multi-purpose stadium in Easton, Massachusetts. It is the home of the Stonehill Skyhawks field hockey, football, lacrosse, and track & field programs. The stadium has a FieldTurf surface and a 400-meter eight-lane track.

History

Naming

The stadium's naming rights are held by W.B. Mason, a business products company based in nearby Brockton. Before the stadium's construction, W.B. Mason CEO Leo Meehan (himself a Stonehill alumnus and trustee) announced that the company would contribute $1.5 million of its $4 million cost.

The playing surface is known as Timothy J. Coughlin Memorial Field, named after Stonehill alumnus (Class of 1980) and football player Tim "Cogs" Coughlin, who was Managing Director of Cantor Fitzgerald and was killed in its World Trade Center headquarters during the September 11 attacks.
