MANHATTAN, Kan. (AP) - Kansas State is building a $2.1 million soccer facility that will host most of the new women’s soccer games.
The school said Monday the fields will be next to the baseball stadium and will be funded entirely by revenue generated by the athletic department.
Football and soccer will both use the two new fields for practice.
Work began on the project April 27 and a groundbreaking ceremony is planned for Saturday. The project is expected to be completed by July.
Kansas State created its women’s soccer team last year after deciding to drop equestrian. It will play its first game in the fall of 2016.
