Stadiums
Aquinas has used multiple venues to showcase its football program
In the early years Edgerton Park was used to play games
Edgerton Park was also the home of the Rochester Jeffersons, an original team of the NFL.
A decision was made to upgrade the football program and a larger venue was needed. Red Wing Stadium was chosen and the crowds came averaging 16,000 per game.
An official attendance of 21,024 saw Aquinas vs St James at Red Wing Stadium in 1947.
Due to the turnstile success during the 1947 and 1948 seasons, the school decided to build Aquinas Memorial Stadium.
Aquinas Memorial Stadium / Holleder Memorial Stadium
Aquinas/Holleder Memorial Stadium was a 20,000 seat football stadium in Rochester, New York. Located on Ridgeway Avenue, at the south east corner of Mount Read Blvd., it was built in 1949 to serve as the home of Aquinas Institute football.
