Every gift makes a difference
MNU broke ground on the $12 million Copeland Athletic Complex September 20, 2023. Hundreds joined to celebrate where construction begins in October. City of Olathe officials, MNU leadership, campaign leadership and more than 200 athletes cheered as the first shovels were turned.
The priority now is to construct an integrated athletic complex that will enhance the student-athlete experience and bring Pioneer Football, Cross-Country, and Track & Field competitions back to campus. Addressing these needs will serve as an investment in our student-athletes as they pursue an education impacting both hearts and minds.
We desire to grow our investment in faculty, top-quality academic programs and relevant, real-world tools. Through our active role and your continued investment into the lives of our students and faculty, the future looks bright.
By building new facilities, we enhance our capacity to serve more students in the future. Through reinvestment in existing facilities, we ensure that our campus is more functional, welcoming, and environmentally responsible.
Growing university support ultimately increases the number of students who can attend MNU and enhances the quality of their experience in meaningful and memorable ways.
Plans for the Copeland athletic complex include a new football stadium, track and practice field, and expanded locker rooms and team meeting space. The stadium will include a state-of-the-art press box, locker rooms, concessions and promenade. The architect for the project is PGAV Architects. The complex will be built by Huber Construction.
