On May 20, 1991, the only child of the University's former President Jim Taylor, was killed in an automobile accident. Due to the generosity and support for the Taylor's during their time of grief; contributions were made to the college in honor of Young Jim. This support made it possible for the construction of the football, track, and soccer complex. The Board of Trustees voted to name the complex the James H. Taylor, II Stadium after President and Mrs. Taylor's son. Young Jim was the first ball boy when football was reinstated in 1985.

In 2017, the stadium underwent a major renovation as the natural grass surface was stripped away and replaced with two-tone outdoor artificial turf including the Patriot logo at the 50 yard line and alternate colored end zones.
