GIVING BACK TO ST. CLOUD
HUSKY HOCKEY PROVIDES A HELPING HAND IN THE COMMUNITY AND ON CAMPUS
The St. Cloud State University women’s hockey program and the entire St. Cloud State University Athletic Department annually provides many hours of volunteer service for the St. Cloud area and the campus commuity.
Over the years, the St. Cloud State women’s hockey team has participated in reading programs for local youths, they provide a helping hand at the University’s annual move-in day for students moving into the campus dormitories, they provide a free girls’ youth clinic each year, and they participate in the annual Skate with the Huskies program each fall.
These are just a few examples of the many ways that the St. Cloud State University women’s hockey program gives back to the community that surrounds and supports that in St. Cloud and on the campus at St. Cloud State University.
GO HUSKIES! ST. CLOUD STATE ATHLETICS FACILITIES ST. CLOUD STATE FACILITIES
FIRST CLASS PROGRAMS...FIRST CLASS FACILITIES
St. Cloud State University’s tradition of excellence in athletics is mirrored by the many outstanding athletic facilities that are featured on the SCSU campus. The majority of SCSU’s home sporting events take place at the following locations on campus: Halenbeck Hall, Husky Stadium, Selke Field, Dick Putz Field, and the National Hockey Center.
HISTORIC SELKE FIELD: Selke Field is the home to Husky softball, which placed third in the nation in 2004. The softball diamond is located in the southeast corner of the Selke Field athletic complex. Bleachers and two dugouts com- plete the playing area. In addition, the SCSU baseball team has a practice field at Selke, and SCSU students use the facility for intramural soccer and touch football.
HUSKY STADIUM: Husky Stadium opened in September 2004. This multi-pur- pose facility offers seating for 4,198 spectators and is the home to SCSU foot- ball and soccer. The field overlooks the scenic Mississippi River and features a state-of-the-art synthetic playing surface along with lights for night play. In the winter months, the field is covered with an inflatable bubble that provides an outstanding practice space for many of the SCSU athletic teams and SCSU’s recreation sports programs. Other features of the facility include a press box, President’s Suite, concession stands, ticket booths and bathroom facilities.
The stadium is connected to Halenbeck Hall by a student recreation facility that features a massive fitness center, climbing walls, classrooms, dance studios, snack bar, office space and storage locations.
HALENBECK HALL: Halenbeck Hall was completed and dedicated in 1965. The main gymnasium of Halenbeck Hall has a seating capacity of 6,451. Volleyball, men’s and women’s basketball, wrestling, and swimming all com- pete in the main area of Halenbeck. In the summer of 2001, a new wooden floor, arena seating and scoreboard were installed, which makes Halenbeck one of the best courts in the NSIC. The Halenbeck Aquatics Center has seating capacity for 500 spectators. Its features include a six-lane pool and a diving well with one and three meter boards.
HALL OF FAME: Halenbeck Hall is home to the SCSU Athletic Hall of Fame, which was completed in the spring of 1996. The Hall of Fame is located in the south lobby of the main gymnasium and houses the Hall of Fame plaques, as well as trophy cases for each of the Huskies’ sports. The building also houses several classrooms, a complete computer lab and offices for the coaches and athletic administrative staff.
HALENBECK HALL SOUTH: Halenbeck Hall South was completed in 1980. It provides SCSU with an indoor training facility for track, soccer, baseball, softball, and tennis. The major feature of Halenbeck South is an activity center and multiple purpose area bordered by a running track. A new surface was installed in the Halenbeck South Fieldhouse during the summer of 2006. The facility also houses six regulation size racquetball courts, a wrestling practice room, intramural offices, climbing wall and a human performance laboratory. To the east of Halenbeck and Halenbeck South are outdoor tennis courts. ST. CLOUD STATE ATHLETICS FACILITIES
THE HERB BROOKS NATIONAL HOCKEY CENTER: The Herb Brooks National Hockey Center is home to Husky hockey and opened its doors in December of 1989. Its features include two Olympic size sheets of ice measuring 200’ by 100’. The main rink has a seating capacity for 5,159 fans. The arena underwent major renovation recently and is now highlighted by a stunning atrium entrance on the southside of the building, a new concourse level with concession areas, pro shop and the classy Husky Den club room. The project also added in 14 new suites on the southside of the building along with enchancements to the SCSU locker rooms and athletic training operations.
THE MAC: Baseball is played at the St. Cloud Municipal Athletic Complex, located at the west end of St. Cloud. The complex features two of the finest baseball fields in the state - Dick Putz Field and Joe Faber Field.
