Miamisburg High School will debut its first on-site football stadium on Friday when the Vikings host Wayne.

It will be the first game inside the Eudon Holland Stadium that is part of a $4.3 million project at the school. Construction began in November.

Miamisburg will move its home games from longtime site Harmon Field to the school campus. Harmon Field opened in 1923.

The project was delayed for a few weeks when problems installing the 5,400 seats pushed back the first game.

"Harmon Field was such an old field and the stadium had a great history, but this is new and bigger and has (FieldTurf). People come out here all the time, especially in the evening to just walk around and look at it. They’re in amazement at how nice it is." - Steve Channell, Miamisburg High School football coach.
