Memorial Stadium was the home field of the New Mexico State Aggies in Las Cruces, New Mexico. It opened in 1933 and held 12,155 fans. The stadium has since been demolished (it closed in 1977).

Quesenberry Field, northeast of Hadley Hall, became the site of the original Memorial Stadium in 1950, which served 28 seasons with up to 12,155 seats. It was replaced by Aggie Memorial Stadium in 1978 because of its small size and lack of room for parking and facilities; only Memorial Tower survives.
