Pioneer football fans, the 2025 season is almost here, and we can’t wait to cheer on our team! While our highly anticipated new home, the Copeland Athletic Complex, nears completion, games will initially be played at the Olathe District Activities Center (ODAC).

“Construction progress on the new stadium has been steady,” said Vice President of University Advancement & Athletics, Todd Garrett. “But an unexpected issue with the turf installation, combined with recent weather delays, pushed back the final completion timeline. Unfortunately, at least the first two games (August 28 and September 6) will have to be played off campus. We’re committed to ensuring the facility is fully ready to provide the best possible experience for the players, coaches, and fans before opening day.”

We will continue to share updates as the project moves forward. For the latest information on game locations and the official opening of the Copeland Athletic Complex, please visit mnusports.com.

The opening of the Copeland Athletic Complex will be a historic day for MNU Athletics, and we can’t wait to welcome fans into this state-of-the-art facility.

MNU thanks you for your patience and support, and we encourage fans to fill the stands at ODAC and show their Pioneer pride from the very first snap!
