FHSU Track and Field Faciltiy

Fort Hays State University’s state-of-the-art track & field complex features a 9-lane rubber track, jumping pits and specific event areas for javelin, discus, shot put, hammer and pole vault. Additionally, there are grand stand bleachers for spectators, locker rooms, restrooms, a press box and concession stands.

The facility is located west of Gross Memorial Coliseum and adjacent to FHSU Soccer Stadium. Construction began in spring of 2016 with a groundbreaking ceremony on May 11 and was completed in the fall of 2016. The project was a result of new student housing being constructed in the space previously used for Tiger field events. After considering how to best address the need to relocate field events to a separate site away from Lewis Field, the best option became the construction of an entirely new track & field facility specifically designed for the sole purpose of track and field competition.
