The Jessee/Miller Field, named for two Trinity College football coaches, features a modern playing surface, six-lane, 400-meter track, and stadium seating for 5,500 people. The field was converted from grass to turf, durable in all-weather, in 2002.

In 1932, Daniel E. Jessee was hired by the College to coach varsity football, baseball, and squash. In 1934, Jessee brought the College its first undefeated and untied football season. In the 1940s, Jessee continued to bring the College success in football and baseball.

During Jessee's final football season in 1966, he was titled Football Coach of the Year by the Football Writers of America. President Jacobs designated the College's football field as the “Daniel Jessee Field” on November 5th to begin the season.

After Jessee's retirement, assistant coach Donald G. Miller filled the role of football head coach. Beginning his Trinity career in 1965, Miller's record for winning surpassed Jessee's by 1994. Under Miller's leadership, the football team accomplished their best season in 1970 since their undefeated season in 1955. Miller was named New England Coach of the Year for his accomplishments.
