Located in Raleigh, North Carolina, Wayne Day Family Field at Carter–Finley Stadium proudly stands as the home turf of the NC State Wolfpack football team.

Consequently, many of longtime coach Earle Edwards’ teams had to play more games on the road than at home. Upon Coach Edwards’ insistence, NCSU officials wholeheartedly committed to building a superior and more modern facility.
