University of Denver Lights Up Pioneer Field, Peter Barton Lacrosse Stadium with Daktronics LED Video Displays

Daktronics partners with the University of Denver (DU) to design, manufacture, and install two LED video displays in Denver, Colo., one at Pioneer Field for soccer and another at Peter Barton Lacrosse Stadium for lacrosse.

The installation of these displays was completed over the summer and each is currently lighting up Pioneer soccer, lacrosse, and other university events.

“I’d like to thank Daktronics for their continued partnership. Their industry-leading digital assets have been an enhancement to the game-day experience at the University of Denver,” Denver Vice Chancellor for Athletics and Ritchie Center Operations Josh Berlo says. “The replacement of the lacrosse video board this spring brought an improved video experience and score display to our loyal fans at Peter Barton Lacrosse Stadium. The AMG National Trust Videoboard out at soccer gives us a new tool to showcase our elite men’s and women’s soccer programs, as we move into the highly competitive West Coast Conference next fall. Overall, the team at Daktronics was thorough and professional in the two projects and went above and beyond to make both displays something our university is proud of.”

Video Display Details

Both video displays measure approximately 18 feet high by 33 feet wide and each features a 10-millimeter pixel spacing to deliver imagery to fans at each venue. The displays feature environmental protection, ensuring each operates as expected in the mile-high weather.

These displays are capable of variable content zoning, meaning each can share one large image or multiple zones of content to meet the needs of every event. This includes live video, instant replays, up-to-the-minute statistics and game information, graphics and animation, and sponsorship messages.

“Daktronics is proud to support the University of Denver’s commitment to excellence,” says Eric Cain, Daktronics Sales Representative. “These new video boards for soccer and lacrosse will elevate the student-athlete environment, strengthen game presentation and create a more immersive experience for fans. Our aim is to deliver technology that reflects DU’s championship standards and enhances the atmosphere for every Pioneer who steps onto the field or into the stands.”
