Fieldhouse Facility Construction Underway At Finlandia’s McAfee Field

The Finlandia Lions will take to the football field for the first time this Saturday.

But a football program isn’t the only thing being built at McAfee Field in Hancock.

A groundbreaking ceremony was held Tuesday to announce the first phase of a $700,000 fieldhouse.
Terry Talo Lions DenThe roughly 4,000 square-foot facility will include the “Terry Talo Lion’s Den which will accommodate up to 110 student athletes.

 

Athletic Director Chris Salani said it’s part of an effort to make things better for the students.

The fieldhouse project comes on the heels of a one million dollar renovation to the Paavo Nurmi athletic center.

These improvements, along with the addition of the football program, have led to one of the largest incoming classes ever at Finlandia.

The structure is scheduled to open in 2016.
