McAndrew Stadium was a multi-purpose stadium in Carbondale, Illinois, USA. It opened in 1938 and was home to the Southern Illinois University Salukis football team, as well as the track team. It was replaced by Saluki Stadium in 2010. Originally built by the Works Progress Administration during the Great Depression of the mid-1930s, it had a construction cost of $150,000, only seated 5,000 and was hailed as one of the most attractive stadiums in the Midwest. When William McAndrew, the school's first head coach, died in 1943, the University named the stadium McAndrew Stadium in his honor.
