The John Walker Soccer Complex is the only soccer pitch in the Big 12 Conference equipped with FieldTurf, a mix of synthetic blades of grass supported by an infill of sand and rubber.

The stadium is named after John Walker after he, his wife, Lisa, and their family contributed $2.25 million toward the project, earning the naming rights.
