The University of Mary Hardin-Baylor football team plays its home games at Belton High School's Tiger Field. The 7,500-seat stadium is located less than three minutes away from the UMHB campus and is one of the finest football stadiums in Central Texas. The facility features seating on both sidelines, along with end zone bleachers housing the "Couch Cru", UMHB's student cheering section. There are full concession and restroom facilities on both the home and visitor's sides. There is also a full-service, two-story press box on the home side bleachers with seating for visiting coaches in a one-story press box on the visitor's side.
The original natural grass surface was replaced with a "PerfectGrass" artificial playing surface prior to the 2005 football season. Tiger Field also played host to its first NCAA Postseason game when the Cru hosted Wesley College in a Second Round game in 2005. UMHB has compiled an impressive 52-11 home record in eleven seasons of games at Tiger Field. The Cru is 7-2 all-time in postseason games at Tiger Field and the stadium also played host to the 2008 NCAA Division III Football National Semifinals when UMHB hosted Wisconsin-Whitewater. A UMHB record crowd of 7,522 turned out to watch the Cru beat Hardin-Simmons 20-18 in the 2008 regular season meeting.
