John O'Quinn Field at Corbin J. Robertson Stadium (often referred to as simply Robertson Stadium) was a multi-purpose stadium in Houston, located on the campus of the University of Houston. It was primarily the home of the Houston Cougars football and women's soccer teams. In June 2010, the University of Houston announced its intention to raze the stadium and build a new venue at the same site. The stadium was closed and demolished upon the conclusion of the Cougars' 2012 football season. The replacement venue is TDECU Stadium.
