Bickle-Schmidt Athletic Complex
Building the Future of FHSU Athletics
The Bickle-Schmidt Athletic Complex will be a 20,000-square-foot game-changing facility for the growth of Fort Hays State Athletic programs. Estimated at $11.5 million, the complex will be well-utilized by our football team and enhance the training capabilities for all student-athletes.
An expansive meeting room and equally impressive locker room will easily fit 130 athletes. In addition to the spacious meeting room, other spaces, like coaching offices, are much-needed additions.
“The new athletic training room within this facility will be on par with many Division I universities but will most importantly set us apart as a leader in sports medicine across the highly competitive MIAA Conference and Division II.”
– Nate Hepner, FHSU Director of Sports Medicine
