Championship Clinic

** CLINIC IS FULL **

The University of Nebraska at Kearney Health and Sports Center has been the home of Loper basketball, volleyball and wrestling events since August of 1990. The 6,000-seat arena was opened after spending nearly 30 years in Cushing Coliseum.

The cost of the project was $10.8 million and was funded by Nebraska Legislature cigarette tax revenues, student fees and private donations. Gracing the Health and Sports Center's west entrance is artist John Raimondi's 20-foot sculpture, “Athleta.”

The air-conditioned arena contains four scoreboards and an outstanding sound system. Elevators exist for handicap access. The arena has hosted numerous concerts and athletic events, including the 1995 & 2007 NCAA® Division II National Wrestling Championships and 1996 NCAA® Division II Northwest Regional Volleyball Championships, and the NCAA® Division II Volleyball National Championships in 2005. The arena seated capacity crowds on three consecutive nights for the 2005 Volleyball Championships, including the largest crowd in NCAA® Division II history to watch a volleyball match, 5025.
