The stadium was built by the Rockwall Independent School District in 1975. Used for football, soccer, and track & field it has been home to Rockwall High School since the stadium's opening and Rockwall-Heath High School since 2005. The stadium was remodeled after the 2008 football season and reopened in time for football season to begin in 2009. Wilkerson-Sanders Memorial Staidum was named in honor of J.A. Wilkerson who was a Math Teacher, Superintendent and football coach and Harvey Sanders who was a local businessman and strong supporter of the Rockwall Yellowjackets. Wilkerson came to the Rockwall Schools in the late 1920’s. He assumed duties as superintendent, math teacher, and football coach in 1934. With his leadership and a strong football tradition additional momentum from the fans became stronger. This led to a new design and construction of a football stadium on the property east of Rockwall High School (presently Hobart Wisdom Stadium) in the 1940's. When the present-day stadium was built, the community and Rockwall Independent School District named the stadium in honor of both Wilkerson and Sanders.[1] References1. ^{{cite web |title=History of Rockwall Independent School District |url=http://www.rockwallisd.com/Page/238 |website=Rockwall ISD |publisher=Rockwall Independent School District |accessdate=4 June 2018}} External links
