R.S. Killen, a Louisiana High School Hall of Famer, coached from 1924 to 1950. In 1944, the stadium was named Killen Field in his honor. The name was revoked in 1953 because of a state law barring the naming of public structures after living persons. For people who remember this period in Lake Charles High School history, the stadium holds endless memories.
