Shaw Stadium is a stadium in East Cleveland, Ohio , United States, mainly used for high school football . The stadium was built in 1923 and is home to the Shaw High School Cardinals football team and marching band.[ 1] [ 2] [ 3]
In 1938 , the Cleveland Rams of the National Football League (NFL) played three of their four home games at Shaw, winning two and losing one.[ 4] [ 5] The Rams earned their first home NFL victory in franchise history with a defeat of the Detroit Lions , followed by a win over the Chicago Bears .
Both Case Institute of Technology and Western Reserve University , which later merged to create Case Western Reserve University , used Shaw Stadium at various times for their home football field. The Case Tech Rough Riders used Shaw for home football games from 1939 to 1952.[ 6] Case had previously played at Shaw in the 1920s for games against rival Western Reserve , who were known as the Pioneers at the time, playing there in 1923, 1925, and 1926.[ 7] Western Reserve University, later known as the Western Reserve Red Cats , held occasional games at Shaw, but used it as their home field for the 1942,[ 8] 1946,[ 9] and 1950[ 10] seasons.
