The stadium where Assumption University hosts its football games will now have the name of one the program's best-known graduates.

The university announced its multi-sport stadium is being named for Assumption alumnus and current Notre Dame football coach Brian Kelly.

Kelly played at Assumption in the early 1980s, helping build the football program as an athlete and later as an assistant coach. He's supported Assumption athletics in the past, and has issued a $1 million challenge grant.

The money will be used to improve the school's baseball and softball fields.
