  ## History
  
  Opened in 1992, the stadium replaced Henderson Stadium. Its name is derived from former Alcorn State Braves football player Jack Spinks. The name was changed to the Marino Casem-Jack Spinks Memorial Stadium in 2011 after then Alcorn State president M. Christopher Brown II stated "Coach Casem helped Alcorn athletics increase both in stature and in reputation to become a nationally recognized university".
