Roberts Stadium is a soccer stadium located on the campus of Princeton University in Princeton, New Jersey. It is the home to the Princeton Tigers soccer teams.[1]

Roberts Stadium opened September 2, 2008, and was formally dedicated October 4, 2008, following a doubleheader with Dartmouth College. The stadium replaced the former Lourie-Love Field, which stood on the same grounds.[2] Lourie-Love Field was named after Princeton football alumni Donold B. Lourie and George H. Love, both 1922 graduates.
