University of Dayton Athletics

Current Initiatives
Woerner field at AES Ohio Stadium is being renovated. The playing surface is being replaced with artificial turf in time for the 2023 season.

Von Mohr Practice Facility was fully turfed in summer 2021 and is receiving more upgrades in fall 2022. This fall we are installing 4 light towers to allow for night time training. We will also be adding a filming tower at midfield and will be named in memory of former Flyer, Dan Thobe.

Collins Gym is the indoor facility geared toward use by all 17 varsity sports. Construction has begun on renovations and is expected to be completed in early 2023. The facility is receiving upgrades including new lights, paint, graphics, added turf area and new track lanes, elevated storage and curtains to divide the track & turf to allow for simultaneous use by teams.
