RENO, Nev. -Â The University of Nevada and Nevada Athletics held the "Topping Out" ceremony for the Indoor Fieldhouse Monday, marking the placement of the final beam in the facility's structure.
Ahead of the placement, the final beam was signed by University President Brian Sandoval '86, Nevada Athletics Director
Stephanie Rempe, along with representatives from the NSHE Board of Regents, ASUN, ROTC, the Graduate School Association, the WPAA Board, Donors, the Construction and Project Team, Wolf Pack Marching Band director Dr. Steve Eubanks, and Wolf Pack coaches and student-athletes.
Primak Construction Group was the steel erector that placed the column. The crane was operated by Connolly Crane, and the column was painted by R&J Painting.
The estimated completion date for the Indoor Fieldhouse is October 2026.
The University indoor fieldhouse and turf fields project was approved by the NSHE Board of Regents on June 13, 2025, and groundbreaking took place that August.
Groundbreaking for the state-of-the-art fieldhouse, set to be located adjacent to the southeast entrance of Mackay Stadium, is set to take place later this summer with completion of the facility targeted for summer 2026.
The 72,000-square foot facility will benefit the University student body by serving in a multi-purpose capacity. The fieldhouse's 110 yards of indoor turf and recreation space will accommodate Nevada club and intramural sports while enhancing wellness and activity for the campus community. The facility also provides a critical practice area for the Wolf Pack Marching Band and Nevada spirit teams with additional opportunities for ROTC exercises, ASUN and community events, youth sports' activities, and pregame events.
The fieldhouse has long been essential for Wolf Pack student athletes to train, compete, and succeed year-round. It will positively impact all 17 Nevada sports by providing training space for football and women's soccer, batting cages for softball, and conditioning space for all Wolf Pack programs.
