Logan • Utah State opened renovated Maverik Stadium on Thursday night, starting with a ribbon-cutting on the new west concourse 2 1/2 hours before kickoff.
School president Stan Albrecht and athletic director John Hartwell addressed a small group of dignitaries and boosters during the ceremony, including Mountain West Conference commissioner Craig Thompson.
Hartwell called it "a tremendous day in Utah State history, certainly in Utah State football history. We could not be more pleased to unveil this … project.
"It has been quite a task, with many hands pulling on the same end of the rope to get this project done in such a short time-frame.
