This fall, 10 Syracuse sports will host games at six different sites on or close to the SU campus. Here is a list of what to know about each of the venues.

Carrier Dome

Address: 900 Irving Ave.

Price for student entry: student fee



You need to know the ins and outs of the Dome, because this fall, thousands of students will pile through Gate E for the 37th year. Located on Irving Avenue, the Carrier Dome hosts five sports: football, men’s and women’s basketball, and men’s and women’s lacrosse. Long known as “The Loud House,” the Carrier Dome has a maximum capacity of 49,262 people for field sports and 34,616 for basketball. The rowdiest section of the dome is usually section 104, where the student section known as “Otto’s Army” resides. You can also buy food with your SUID.

Women’s Building

Address: 820 Comstock Ave.

Price: free

The Women’s Building is the only sports venue other than the Carrier Dome located on North Campus. While the building is home to a full workout facility for students, it is also the site of all home games for SU volleyball. The gym inside the Women’s Building, which opened in 1953, can hold up to 3,000 occupants.

SU Soccer Stadium

SU Soccer Stadium opened its gates for the 21st year when the women’s soccer team hosted Connecticut on August 21. Accessible through the 344 South Campus bus which stops at Manley North, the stadium holds up to 1,500 fans in its metal bleacher surrounding the grass pitch.
