The University also has consented to allow Doc Wadley Stadium to be used for other purposes—for example, the Tahlequah High School football team (the Tahlequah Tigers) schedules their home games there and the field is also used for marching band contests. The Tahlequah City Vipers are an adult amateur team that also leases the stadium.
Doc Wadley Stadium underwent a $3.5 million renovation in 2014 which included an expanded seating capacity to 8,300, installing artificial turf, installing a video scoreboard, and additional restrooms and concession areas.[2]
