Athletics
GOAL: $8 million
Intercollegiate athletics play a significant role in a vibrant and engaged campus and student life. Minot State is a member of the highly-competitive Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference, a powerhouse member of the American Collegiate Hockey Association in both men's and women's hockey, and is proud to be the only North Dakota University System school to compete in NCAA Division II.
Minot State Dome
Minot State continues to upgrade and enhance the MSU Dome. While it remains a hub of athletics, entertainment, and education events, improvements are vital to keep it as a premier arena. Planned improvements include:
- Building a new strength and conditioning area with weightroom, football locker room, meeting space, and field-level storage.
- Expanding athletic and administrative offices and adding a food court, concessions, entertainment suites, a Beaver apparel shop, and an updated Athletics Hall of Fame.
- Improving displays with an optimized center-hung scoreboard.
- Renovating existing locker rooms.
Herb Parker Stadium
The Herb Parker Stadium complex has undergone major changes in the past decade. The University recently updated the playing surface and renamed the field First Western Bank Field at Herb Parker Stadium in 2022. Additional updates include:
- Adding a northeast entrance gate including ticket office, restrooms, entertainment space, and pavers throughout the east mezzanine.

Minot State's committment to high achieving student-athletes begins with support in each program, including training equipment, facility upgrades, travel, and game-day environment. Funding for the Men's and Women's Hockey Endowment will support operations for our nationally-ranked programs.
