Ohio Field (Bronx)
Ohio Field is the main outdoor athletic facility at Bronx Community College in the University Heights neighborhood of The Bronx in New York City. The field consists of a baseball diamond and large, natural grass outfield, surrounded by a 200-meter running track. Bronx Community College's athletics teams use the field for baseball and men's soccer. Early in the 20th century, Ohio Field was the main outdoor athletic venue for New York University, which occupied the University Heights campus until 1973. It was the home of the NYU Violets baseball and football teams dating back at least to 1901. It was also used for soccer and track and field competitions. NYU baseball and soccer continued to be played until the 1971–72 academic year. As NYU's football program grew in stature, the team began to play some, and eventually most, of its games at larger stadiums off-campus, such as the Polo Grounds and Yankee Stadium, though it continued to use Ohio Field as a practice facility.

American Football
American football (referred to simply as football in the United States and Canada), also known as gridiron, is a team sport played by two teams of eleven players on a rectangular field with goalposts at each end. The offense, the team with possession of the oval-shaped football, attempts to advance down the field by running with the ball or passing it, while the defense, the team without possession of the ball, aims to stop the offense's advance and to take control of the ball for themselves. The offense must advance at least ten yards in four downs or plays; if they fail, they turn over the football to the defense, but if they succeed, they are given a new set of four downs to continue the drive. Points are scored primarily by advancing the ball into the opposing team's end zone for a touchdown or kicking the ball through the opponent's goalposts for a field goal. The team with the most points at the end of a game wins. American football evolved in the United States, ...
