The Jayhawk League was established in 1930 with six schools: St. Mary’s, Eskridge, Topeka Catholic, Wamego, Highland Park, and Seaman High. After St. Mary’s withdrew in 1931, the league continued with five schools until Alma joined in 1933, forming a six-school league. Osage City became the seventh member in 1936. In 1944, Alma and Eskridge dropped out, leaving five schools. Council Grove joined briefly from 1944 to 1946, after which the league returned to five schools. In 1947, Washburn Rural joined, making the members: Hayden (formerly Topeka Catholic), Wamego, Highland Park, Seaman High, Osage City, and Washburn Rural. Further changes occurred in 1953 when Highland Park left and Haskell Institute joined. In 1955, Hayden withdrew, and Holton became a member.

The first Seaman football stadium was located immediately west of the first school building, on the corner of Lyman Road and Tyler. The field ran north and south and was located roughly where the current Seaman Congregational Church in now situated.
A stadium was part of the plan when the high school moved west two blocks to 1124 West Lyman Road. That building was dedicated on March 11, 1955. The Seaman band play, the flag salute, was led by the president of the student council, Sharlyn Lesser. The choir sang, the invocation was given by the pastor of Seaman Congregational church, and principal Chuck Logan introduced the State Superintendent of Schools, Adel Throckmorton, who gave the” Dedicatory Address,” and the audience and band ended the ceremony by singing the school song. When the new Seaman High School building was built on Rochester Road, that building became “Logan Junior High.” In 1965 the stadium at that location was named “Logan Field.”
The current Seaman Stadium was dedicated on the evening of September 24, 1982. The ceremony took place before the first home game against Shawnee Heights. Frank Farrant, president of the Board of Education, presented a symbolic key to principal Don Pierce. The field has since been named, “Don Pierce Field,” and the track has been named, “Kent Hurn Track.”
