The Class of 1973 also aims to create an endowment of $300,000 to provide resources for the future maintenance of the system to ensure its vitality for years to come. In recognition of his generosity, the new scoreboard will be known publicly through visual signage and audio recognition as the Class of 1973 Scoreboard. This new scoreboard is funded by a generous gift of $1.2 million from Bill Varner, ’73, for his class’s 50th Reunion Campaign with The Citadel Foundation. We can’t wait to join them and see everything up and running.” With the addition of these displays at Johnson Hagood Stadium, Bulldog fans will return to a new and more engaging game-day environment.

“To be chosen for this project and further our long-standing partnership is an honor. “We’re excited to be working with The Citadel again,” said Corey Williams, Daktronics sales representative. The system provides full-range sound reproduction and delivers clear and intelligible speech for an exceptional listening experience for those in the stadium. These six displays all feature 15HD pixel layouts to bring excellent image clarity and contrast to fans in every seat of Johnson Hagood Stadium.Ī Sportsound® 2000 audio system will be integrated into the video and scoring system at The Citadel. An auxiliary display measures more than 7 feet high by 18 feet wide. The center video display measures approximately 26.5 feet high by 51.5 feet wide and four side displays each measure approximately 15.5 feet high by 13 feet wide. “This is the next step in our stadium enhancement project at Johnson Hagood Stadium and will provide our fans a great experience with the newest technology available for a video board.” “The Citadel is looking forward to working with Daktronics on this very exciting project,” said Mike Capaccio, director of athletics for The Citadel.

The installation will be taking place this summer to have the venue ready to welcome visitors in the fall.
