The track was also resurfaced in the summer of 2005.

To get to the field from Highway 99, turn west on Jackson Street and follow past the south end of campus all the way to Stadium Drive. Turn right and after about a block turn right into the McArthur Field parking lot which is located on teh corner of Church Street and Stadium Drive.
