Keep with a little research, found a few sources and added two of them to the article to show that the subject passes WP:GNG. There is probably some work to do on verifying the name of the article (a rename may be in order) and I found some conflicting data on the capacity, but those are editing and research issues, not deletion issues.--Paul McDonald (talk) 14:41, 7 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I have removed some of your additions due to close paraphrasing and original research issues. Please also note, passing mentions and non-independent coverage do not contribute to meeting the requirements of GNG. _wjemather^{please leave a message...} 14:19, 14 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Meets GNG per Paulmcdonald. ~EDDY ^{(talk/contribs)}~ 13:10, 14 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Merge and redirect to Averett University, per WP:ATD. Hopelessly fails WP:GNG due to lack of significant coverage. There is also entirely insufficient content to justify a standalone article when a suitable main article exists to accommodate what there is without any issues. We have just one independent source that contains anything more than a passing mention but even that is mainly just quotes from the university – it is entirely insufficient for GNG. Other than the sources already in the article, all I'm seeing are standard passing mentions that you would expect for any WP:MILL university sports facility. Finally, for anyone looking for sources, as noted above it seems the stadium and field have been renamed, to Frank R. Campbell Stadium and Daly Field. _wjemather^{please leave a message...} 14:19, 14 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Merge and redirect to Averett University, per WP:ATD. This scarcely-sourced stub does not need to remain as an independent article. Doczilla _{@SUPERHEROLOGIST} 21:16, 14 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Less Unless (talk) 10:00, 15 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Merge and redirect per above. Fails GNG. Much better as part of the parent article. Nigej (talk) 06:36, 21 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
