CARTER-FINLEY STADIUM: North Carolina State Wolfpack (NCAA) (1966-present) Raleigh-Durham Skyhawks (WLAF) (1991)

Carter-Finley Stadium was opened in 1966 as home to the North Carolina State University Wolfpack football team. The stadium replaced the obsolete on-campus Riddick Stadium and was originally named Carter Stadium in honor of Harry C. & Wilbert J. "Nick" Carter, both graduates of the university. They were major contributors to the original building of the stadium. The name of Albert E. Finley, another major contributor to the University, was added later.

Retired jerseys on the facade of Carter-Finley Stadium includes those of Roman Gabriel, Torry Holt, Philip Rivers, Bill Yoest, Dennis Byrd, Dick Christy, Jim Ritcher, and Ted Brown. Carter-Finley also displays banners from NC State's Bowl appearances which include the Gator Bowl, Peach Bowl, and Liberty Bowl.

REYNOLDS COLISEUM: William Neal Reynolds Coliseum (opened 1949) is a multi-purpose arena located in Raleigh, North Carolina on the North Carolina State University campus. The arena was built to host a variety of events, including agricultural expositions and NC State basketball games. It is now home to all services of ROTC and several Wolfpack teams, including women's basketball, women's volleyball, women's gymnastics, and men's wrestling.

The arena hosted games for the Carolina Cougars of the American Basketball Association during some but not all of their time in North Carolina from 1969 through 1974.
