Abe Stuber Track Complex

The Southeast Missouri track and field teams train and compete at the Abe Stuber Track Complex during the outdoor season.

Considered one of the finest track facilities in the Midwest, it has been the host of the Ohio Valley Conference Outdoor Track & Field Championships six times, most recently in 2012. The facility is also home to the Joey Haines Invitational which is held during the first weekend of April every year. Dedicated in the spring of 1980 and named after the late Abe Stuber -- who coached the Southeast track squads from 1932-46 -- the facility includes a press box and spectator seating for up to 2,000.

Designed strictly as a track and field complex, it has served as the host site of three NCAA Division II National Track & Field Championships.

Recently, an $800,000 update took place as all track and field runways were resurfaced, jumping areas were renovated and new fencing was added to the complex. Previous updates included a brand new hammer cage was added in March, 2012. Also, a 2,000-square foot building was constructed adjacent to the track in 2002 which houses a weight room, coaches offices, restrooms and storage.

The spacious 1,500-square foot weight room is equipped with seven multi-power racks and lifting platforms. It contains nearly 5,000 pounds of free weights, 3,000 pounds of dumbbells and numerous weight training machines. The completion of this $300,000 project has given the team one of the best training facilities in the region. In addition, this complex allows the men's and women's track teams to practice in a safe and efficient manner at all times.

The Abe Stuber Track Complex is located on the north edge of campus off Sprigg Street and within walking distance to the University.
