DU to dedicate soccer field April 17
The University of Denver will dedicate the new University of Denver Soccer Stadium at CIBER Field on Sat., April 17 at 6:45 p.m., the university announced Monday. The ceremony will take place between the Pioneers’ women’s and men’s spring games.
“This dedication of the University of Denver Soccer Stadium and CIBER Field adds to DU’s collection of first-rate facilities,” DU Vice Chancellor for Athletics and Recreation and Ritchie Center Operations Peg Bradley-Doppes said. “We can’t thank CIBER and the other donors enough for their contributions on this project. Our soccer programs have already capitalized on the increased momentum that the new stadium has generated.”
The field is named after CIBER, Inc., an international IT outsourcing and software implementation and integration consultancy based in Greenwood Village, Colo. CIBER’s contributions were instrumental in building the field, and it provides ongoing support to Pioneer Athletics, according to the university.
The women’s soccer team will take on regional rival Wyoming at 4 p.m., and the men’s annual spring fundraiser game against NCAA Division II national champion Fort Lewis College will begin immediately following the dedication.
“We are excited to dedicate CIBER Field,” Denver women’s soccer head coach Jeff Hooker said. “This is the culmination of a lot of hard work and generosity from donors, and now we have one of the nicest soccer stadiums in the country.”
