The College is committed to enriching lives and fostering development by combining a foundation in the liberal arts with professional skill and advanced study. With nearly 1,850 students from 26 states and 30 countries, Augustana is ranked the No. 6 baccalaureate college in the nation for its efforts to advance social mobility, research and service by Washington Monthly. We’re proud to be featured among 650 of “America’s Top Colleges” by Forbes and to be named a “Best Midwestern College” by the Princeton Review and a “Best Buy” by U.S. News & World Report. Augustana is also identified as one of "440 Great Colleges for Top Students" by Peterson’s Guide and among “America’s top 100 outstanding but under-appreciated colleges” by Harvard Schmarvard. In 2010, we were named to the President’s Higher Education Community Service Honor Role for supporting volunteerism, service-learning and civic engagement and the Templeton Guide includes the College among those that inspire students to lead ethical and civic-minded lives. We’re proud to say that the average ACT of our entering class is 25, one of the highest averages of any college or university in the region. Nearly 90 percent of our students come from South Dakota, Minnesota, Iowa and Nebraska. Eleven percent are alumni legacies. Location Augustana is located in Sioux Falls, S.D., the largest city in South Dakota with a population of more than 160,000. The city’s dynamic, robust business environment offers our students internship opportunities in the areas of agribusiness, biotechnology, financial services, health care, manufacturing, and tourism. Sioux Falls is also home to the Washington Pavilion of Arts and Sciences, the South Dakota Symphony Orchestra, more than 500 restaurants, 70 parks and recreation areas, including a 20-mile paved bike trail, and four minor league sports teams. A Global Perspective At Augustana, we believe that in order to learn about the world, you have to see it. Taste it. Live it. It’s why we’re committed to providing students with a global perspective. Nearly half of our students travel abroad during their college careers and, our campus is home to students from 30 countries. The Academic Program At the heart of the Augustana experience is a team of renowned, devoted professors who are passionately committed to engage the intellect and inspire the imagination. More than 80 percent of our full-time tenured and tenure-track professors hold the highest degrees in their fields. Augustana offers more than 50 majors and pre-professional specializations within a 4-1-4 academic year. Choice local internships, study abroad programs and local and national undergraduate research opportunities supplement the curriculum. Civitas, the College’s honors program, provides an exceptionally rigorous academic experience and bridges disciplines with an exploration of the values associated with leading a responsible life.

AUGUSTANA FOOTBALL

Performing, Visual and Literary Arts At Augustana, we believe that art stirs the soul, enriches the mind and empowers the heart – it’s why the performing, literary and visual arts are cornerstone to our culture. We’re proud to say that the South Dakota Symphony Orchestra got its start on our campus in 1922. With the addition of the 24,000-square foot Center for Visual Arts, Augustana continues to be a center for the visual arts in southeastern South Dakota and southwestern Minnesota. Approximately 24 percent of Augustana students are involved in music ensembles, theatre productions and art exhibitions on campus and around the globe. In January 2011, 80 student members of the Augustana Band toured Egypt and in October 2012, the Augustana Orchestra will perform with the legendary rock band Kansas. Well-attended exhibitions featuring professional and student artists are held each year in the new Eide/Dalrymple Gallery. The Theatre Department produces main stage shows each year, including a musical and Vikings Varieties, Augustana’s live homecoming entertainment. In addition, Augustana is proud to partner with the South Dakota Symphony Orchestra to bring national and international string players to Sioux Falls through the Augustana Faculty String Quartet.

ROB

OLIVER

PRESIDENT

South Dakota, 1975

When the board of trustees announced its decision to hire Robert C. Oliver as Augustana's 23rd president, the campus and Sioux Falls communities' response was predictably and overwhelmingly positive. Oliver was no stranger to either community, and his leadership and passion for life and learning are hallmarks of his career. Born in Dayton, Ohio, Oliver attended public schools and entered the University of South Dakota in 1971. He obtained a bachelor’s in economics in 1975 and, while employed by Norwest Bank in Rapid City, began coursework to receive his master’s of business administration in 1977.

As Norwest Bank completed its transition to becoming Wells Fargo & Co., Oliver continued his progression through a variety of positions with the firm. He has experience as a personal banker and commercial banker and became manager of the business banking department in Sioux Falls. In 1987, Oliver was named president of the Sioux Falls market banks. He expanded the operations of the then Norwest Bank franchise in Sioux Falls to include 16 locations. In 1999, he was named southeast district president, responsible for 27 banking locations in 13 communities in southeast South Dakota and southwest Minnesota.

Oliver’s "free time" during his years at the bank included coursework at The Stonier Graduate School of Banking. He taught classes for the USD School of Business, both in the undergraduate and MBA programs in Sioux Falls. He also taught for the American Institute of Banking and the Institute for Financial Education.

Believing that service to one's community is as important as one's career, Oliver became well-known throughout the area as a model board member and volunteer. His area involvement has included the Avera McKennan Hospital Board of Trustees (chair), Augustana Board of Regents (former chair), Board of Directors of Avera Heart Hospital of South Dakota (member), Communication Services for the Deaf (board member), Sioux Empire United Way Board (former chair) and Volunteers of America (board member). Additionally, Oliver has served Forward Sioux Falls, Sioux Falls Development Foundation, Main Street Sioux Falls, YMCA, Threshold Youth Services, the Civic Fine Arts Center and Sioux Empire Red Cross. He is a member of Gloria Dei Lutheran Church. Oliver retired from banking in 2004 and joined the Augustana faculty as an associate professor and chair of the department of business administration. While his tenure within the department was brief, his dedication to students and excellence in the classroom were soon well-known. Oliver and his wife, Angela, are the parents of two daughters, Laura Oliver and Andrea Cammilleri. BILL

GROSS

DIRECTOR OF ATHLETICS Augustana’s athletic department has flourished under the direction of Bill Gross.

Augustana, 1973

From facilities to execution on the playing field, Augustana has gained national recognition under Gross’ guidance. The Vikings began competition in the Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference in 2008 and in just three seasons claimed the U.S. Bank/NSIC All-Sports Championship. This award recognizes the NSIC program with the most success each year. In 2010-11, the Vikings won seven NSIC championships and the football team shared a division title. Five Augustana teams competed for NCAA championships. In addition, the Vikings checked in at No. 3 in the Learfield Sports Directors' Cup standings, a national all-sports ranking of schools in NCAA Division II.

Augustana sponsors 18 athletic programs – nine each for men and women. In 2010-11, there were 362 student-athletes listed on the various Viking rosters.

Gross begins his 33rd year as a member of the Augustana athletic staff in 2011-12. He served as assistant men’s basketball coach from 1979 to 1983 and head men’s basketball coach from 1983 to 1992. He chaired the health, physical education and recreation department from 1995 to 2005. After his appointment in 1986, Gross is now in his 26th year as Augustana’s athletic director.

Under Gross’ leadership, Augustana now plays the majority of its home contests on campus. He has been directly involved in fundraising efforts and planning of the Elmen Center (1989) and its addition (2002); Bowden Field for softball (1991); Ronken Field for baseball (1993); Hall Football Complex and Sanford Gymnasium (2006); Kirkeby-Over Stadium (2009); Morstad Field (2009); and the Huether Tennis Centre (2009). He has also supervised and raised funds for the campus marquee (2002), the installation of the Pulastic surface in the Elmen Center (2005), and the Elmen Center bleacher renovations (2010). Since 2006, Gross has been instrumental in cultivating donors to raise more than $15 million in support of new and renovated athletic facilities on campus. In terms of annual fundraising, Gross has played a significant role in the growth of the 800-member Augustana Athletic Club. He has been directly involved in the formation and increased support generated by the All-American Team, Augustana’s corporate sponsorship program. The organization has grown to 43 members, who provide more than $500,000 in annual support for Augustana athletics.

In 2004, Gross created the 30-minute promotional “Augustana Sportscene” television program. The weekly production, which Gross hosts, begins its eighth season in 2011-12 and is now reaching more than 1,000 communities in South Dakota, North Dakota, Minnesota, Iowa, Wisconsin and Illinois on Midco Sports Network and the Mediacom cable system. The program is also viewed worldwide at GoAugie.com. In 2009, Gross negotiated a new contract with Results Radio/Cumulus Media to carry all Augustana women’s basketball games on KXRB-AM 1000.

In his nine seasons as head men’s basketball coach, Gross’ teams posted a 154-103 record and registered nine winning seasons. His 1988-89 squad won the North Central Conference championship and compiled an overall record of 23-7 (a school record at the time). His Vikings also advanced to the NCAA tournament in 1986, 1988 and 1989. A native of Hayfield, Minn., Gross played basketball at Augustana from 1969 to 1973. He earned All-North Central Conference recognition three years. After receiving his degree, Gross played one year of professional basketball in Europe. He then taught and coached at the high school level in Mitchell, S.D., and Marshall, Minn., before returning to Augustana in 1979. He earned his master’s degree in physical education from the University of South Dakota in 1979. Gross and his wife, Sheree, are the parents of three children: Jennie, Chris, and Sara. 4 | AUGUSTANA FOOTBALL

HIGH EXPECTATIONS AWAIT VIKINGS IN 2011 AFTER RECORD-BREAKING SEASON by Bruce Conley, sports information assistant

Augustana’s 2011 football season is one of opportunity for aspiring players eager to expand their roles.

Head coach Mike Aldrich and his staff must replace 10 starters – four on offense and six on defense. Two of the missing on offense accounted for 2,250 yards and 31 touchdowns a year ago. Defensively, the three leading tacklers representing the entire starting linebacking corps are gone.

Last season, the Vikings set a school record for wins (11), made their first playoff appearance since 1989, hosted their first playoff game and registered their first playoff win. Augustana captured a share of the Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference’s South Division championship, led the league in total defense and was fourth in total offense. But a new campaign is dawning, and it begins with defending conference and national champion Minnesota Duluth.

“I wouldn’t have it any other way,” said Aldrich of the Bulldogs’ Sept. 3 visit to Kirkeby-Over Stadium. “As the saying goes, if you want to be the best, you have to play the best.”

Running back Joe Clark and wide receiver Tyler Schulte, both All-NSIC first-team choices in 2010 and now Augustana alumni, provided a formidable one-two offensive punch last fall. But quarterback Josh Hanson (Watertown, S.D.), an All-NSIC second-team pick a year ago, has a big play receiver in a healthy Sam Holsen (Sioux Falls). In 2009, Holsen had 37 catches and 13 touchdowns and averaged 100.4 yards in receptions per game. Holsen’s numbers fell off in 2010 due to nagging injuries. Also vying for playing time at wide receiver are Jordan Marshall (Ramsey, Minn.), Ben Parsley (Flandreau, S.D.), Danny Isaacson (Sioux Falls) and Noah Huisman (Mason City, Iowa). Marshall had 98 yards and two touchdown catches last year, while Parsley recorded 73 yards and two touchdowns. Isaacson appeared in 11 games, and Huisman in seven. Hanson passed for 2,295 yards and 23 touchdowns last season. He added 518 yards and four touchdowns on the ground. The 6-foot-1 junior has fully recovered from hand and shoulder injuries that hindered him in the fall and spring. Backup quarterback Ryan Schuetz (Gretna, Neb.) passed for 202 yards and one touchdown last season and commanded the first-team offense in the spring game.

Nate Mahone (Hills, Minn.) is on pace to be the starting running back. In three seasons, he has rushed for 823 yards and three touchdowns. Brock Bills (Sioux Falls) and Dajon Newell (Lakeville, Minn.) are also in the mix. Bills scored on a 1-yard run while operating with the first team offense in the spring game. Phil Uecker (Dassel, Minn.) and Curt Truhe (Elk Poiont, S.D.) are in line for the starting assignment at fullback held by Adam Diamond the last three seasons. Truhe appeared in 11 games last year, and Uecker 10. Truhe scored on a 14-yard run in the spring game to clinch the verdict for the first-team offense.

Nate Mahone

With the exception of All-NSIC center Dan Schoen, the offensive line is intact. Isaac Jorgensen (Sioux Falls), All-NSIC honorable mention in 2010, returns at tight end. Aaron Esselink (Hills, Minn.), a second team All-NSIC choice, is at left guard, Tyler Lynch (Sioux Falls) at right guard and Louis Krabbenhoft (Sioux Falls) at right tackle. Tom Ries (Eden Prairie, Minn.) moves from his left tackle slot to center. Pat Regan (Stillwater, Minn.) and Bo Adams (Omaha, Neb.) likely will be part of the offensive-line rotation. Regan was cited for his improved play at the conclusion of the spring game. Transfer Bruce Manz (Buffalo, Minn.) will also contend for playing time.

Top candidates to step in at linebacker are Austin Luecke (Groton, S.D.), Keith Newman (Watertown, S.D.), Ross Peterson (Sioux Falls) and Jake Weiss (Sioux Falls). Luecke logged 56 tackles a year ago, Newman started one game and Peterson, who had an interception in the spring game, saw action in four contests. Weiss, a former quarterback, is also anxious to join the competition following an arm injury in spring practice.

Defensive end Ben Wardell (Sturgis, S.D.), an All-NSIC second-team pick in 2010, and nose guard Aaron Jung (Watertown, S.D.) are back. Wardell was in on 52 tackles in 2010, while Jung registered 21. Jake Lee (Blue Earth, Minn.) takes over for Brady MacIver at defensive tackle. MacIver was an All-NSIC first-team honoree in 2010. Joel Slinden (Grove City, Minn.) is slated to step in for Eric Bergman at defensive end. Slinden’s improved play was noted by coaches at the end of spring drills.

The secondary is solid with the return of free safety Dan O’Keefe (Aberdeen, S.D.), strong safety Nick Andreas (Lakeville, Minn.) and cornerback Zac Kallas (Eden Prairie, Minn.). O’Keefe was named to the AllNSIC first team a year ago, while Andreas and Kallas were second team picks. O’Keefe was credited with 57 tackles and six pass interceptions last year and this summer was named to the 2011 Consensus Draft Services Preseason All-America second team. Andreas had 77 tackles last fall and Kallas, who landed on a pair of preseason All-America teams, led the team in interceptions with eight and averaged 26 yards on four kick returns. Devon Alber (Manchester, Iowa), Sean Kelly (Naperville, Ill.), Josh Pruett (Sioux Falls) and Chris Lucido (Omaha, Neb.) are competing for Micah Nordin’s corner back spot. Thomas Vanasek (Lakeville, Minn.), who registered 34 tackles and appeared in all 13 games last year, also is vying for playing time.

Augustana’s kicking game is in good hands. Drew Behrens (Pleasant Hill, Iowa) was a first team All-NSIC pick for special teams a year ago. In two seasons, he has scored 128 points, made 20 of 38 field goal attempts and averaged 40.8 yards per punt. Last season, he kicked a school-record five field goals against ConcordiaSt. Paul. Included was a personal best 46-yarder.

Mike Aldrich’s debut as Augustana’s 21st head coach was one for the books.

Aldrich took the reins in 2010 and guided the Vikings to a school-record 11 wins. Augustana ended a 21-year drought in NCAA Division II playoff appearances and in the second round defeated four-time national champion Grand Valley State 38-6 at Kirkeby-Over Stadium. It was the first time Augustana hosted a playoff game in addition to earning its first playoff win. Augustana earned a share of the Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference South Division championship with a 5-1 record and tied for second overall at 9-1. The Vikings finished the season with an overall record of 11-2 and were ranked sixth in the final American Football Coaches Association poll to match the highest billing in school history. Seventeen Vikings were named to the 2010 All-NSIC team, eight to the Don Hansen NCAA Division II All-Super Region Three team and five to the Hansen All-America team.

In addition to serving as head coach, Aldrich also directs the Viking defense. In 2010, Augustana led the NSIC in total defense and rushing defense and was second in passing defense and scoring defense. Buoyed by 26 interceptions, the Vikings led the conference and nation in pass-defense efficiency. Aldrich was chosen Region 5 Coach of the Year and was a finalist for the Liberty Mutual National Coach of the Year award. He was also tabbed College Men’s Coach of the Year by the South Dakota Sportswriters Association.

Prior to being appointed head coach, Aldrich spent four seasons as the Vikings’ defensive coordinator after serving as assistant defensive coordinator and special teams coordinator the previous two seasons. Aldrich, who is in his second stint on the Viking coaching staff, returned to Augustana in 2004 as the team's assistant defensive coordinator, special teams coordinator and secondary coach.

He spent the 2003 season as the defensive graduate assistant at the University of Louisville after serving a two-year stint as the secondary coach and assistant special teams coordinator at Augustana. Under Aldrich’s guidance, the Vikings special teams developed a knack for blocking kicks. In 2004, Augustana blocked eight kicks, and in 2005, the Vikings blocked nine kicks. During his first stint at Augustana, Aldrich was the driving force behind one of the top secondaries in the Division II ranks. Producing five all-conference honorees and one All-America during his tenure, the Aldrich-coached Viking secondary ranked among the nation’s top 10 for interceptions and was anchored by the league leader in interceptions in each of his two seasons at Augustana.

In addition to his duties at Augustana, Aldrich served as the head coach and defensive coordinator for the Sioux Falls Storm of the National Indoor Football League from 2000 to 2002. Aldrich’s impact was immediately felt in the NIFL as the Storm’s defense quickly developed into one of the toughest units in the league. He returned to the Storm bench midway through the 2005 season as the team’s defensive coordinator, a position held through the 2009 season. During his final four seasons, the Storm won four straight United Indoor Football (UIF) championships and recorded a professional sports record 40-straight wins. In 2006, the Storm featured the No. 1 scoring defense in the UIF. Aldrich also served as the special teams coordinator and linebacker coach for California Lutheran University in 2000 after serving as the assistant defensive line coach at the College of the Sequoias in 1999.

A native of Burnsville, Minn., Aldrich started in the coaching ranks at his alma mater, St. Olaf College, where he served as the defensive line coach in 1995, the tight ends coach and assistant offensive coordinator in 1996 and the linebackers coach during the 1997 and 1998 seasons. A four-year letter winner at St. Olaf, Aldrich served as special teams captain during his junior and senior seasons. He earned his bachelor’s degree in economics and social studies education from St. Olaf in 1995. He also earned a master’s degree in kinesiology from the University of Minnesota in 1999. Presently, Aldrich is working on a doctorate degree in sports management from the University of Louisville. Aldrich and his wife, Kristen, live in Sioux Falls. They have a daughter, Makenna, and son, Joseph.

AUGUSTANA FOOTBALL | 93


NORTHERN SUN HISTORY From its modest origin as a six-team alliance nearly eight decades ago, the Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference has matured into a 14-team union of upper Midwest colleges and universities to form arguably the strongest affiliation in NCAA Division II.

The NSIC can trace its roots to 1932 when six schools, including Bemidji State, Minnesota State, MSU Moorhead, St. Cloud State , Minnesota Duluth and Winona State signed on as charter members. All remain active subscribers of the league today.

Southwest Minnesota State was added in 1969, followed by Northern State in 1978, Wayne State in 1998, Concordia and Minnesota, Crookston in 1999, the U-Mary and Upper Iowa in 2006, and Augustana in 2008.

MSU, SCSU and UMD later left the league to join the North Central Conference but returned to the NSIC in 2008. Minnesota-Morris and Michigan Tech were once part of the NSIC family as well. In July 2012, the NSIC will again expand with the addition of Minot State and the Sioux Falls, bringing the league to 16 members for the 2012-13 academic season.

In 1992, the NSIC became a true athletic showcase for both men and women with the merger of the traditional Northern Intercollegiate Conference (NIC) and the Northern Sun Conference (NSC), the home of women’s athletics since 1979. Before NSIC affiliates became certified for championship competition in the National Collegiate Athletic Association in 1995, its member institutions filled prominent roles in the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA). NIC and NSC clubs annually dispatched qualified student-athletes to national tournaments and captured several NAIA teams and individual championships. The NSIC celebrates its 80th season this year and clearly continues to make a major imprint nationally, winning nine national titles in the last six years. The WSU men claimed NCAA II Basketball Championships in 2006 and 2008 and narrowly missed a third crown, falling in a last second shot in 2007. In addition, the Warriors established a NCAA II record of 57 consecutive victories.

CU launched an ongoing streak of four consecutive NCAA II Volleyball Championships in 2007. In 2008, the Golden Bears won 37 straight matches after a season opening loss on their way to a second consecutive title and scripted a marvelous encore in 2009 with a perfect 37-0 finish, a third straight national crown and a winning streak of 74 straight matches. In 2010, the Golden Bear extendeds that win streak to 75 before dropping their second match of the season. They started 2010 with a 10-4 record before ripping off 22 straight wins on their way to their fourth straight national title.

In a most surprising run, UMD completed a perfect 15-0 season by winning the 2008 NCAA Division II Football Championship. The Bulldogs, limited to only 24 scholarships by league rule, swept a field of fully-funded teams, including top ranked Grand Valley State and No. 3 Northwest Missouri State. Two years later in 2010, the Bulldogs repeated that feat, going 15-0 again to win the national championship. The Bulldogs became the first NCAA DII football squad to win two national championships with undefeated records. MSU added more luster to the league by finishing 32-2 and claiming the 2008-09 NCAA II Women’s Basketball Championship. The Mavericks rolled to a wild 103-94 victory over Franklin Pierce to set a NCAA record for total points in the title game.

Since 2000, the NSIC has also participated in the Mineral Water Bowl. Hosted by the Quarterback Club of Excelsior Springs, Mo., the Mineral Water Bowl matches the highest-finishing teams from the NSIC and the Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletics Association (MIAA) not selected for the NCAA Division II football playoffs. WSU defeated Missouri Western State 43-41 in triple overtime, the Warriors first-ever postseason win since 2000. In addition, NSIC student-athletes have made a major splash nationally as well, collecting a batch of individual titles. CU setter Maggie McNamara was honored as the NCAA Division II Honda Women’s Athlete of the Year, the latest NSIC representative decorated with national Player of the Year honors. The NSIC has also had three athletes awarded the NCAA Elite 88 Award, which is presented to the student-athlete with the highest cumulative grade-point average participating at the finals site for each of the NCAA’s 88 championships. Earning the award were Kendra Huettl (MSU, Softball, 2011), Matt Braithwaite (Augustana, Cross Country, 2010) and Lauren Brown (WSU, Outdoor Track and Field, 2010).

Member schools continue to emphasize the educational, entertainment and unifying value of sports while pointing with pride to the many advantages to be gained by attending these colleges and universities. The NSIC is committed to providing rewarding experiences for its student-athletes, and while the challenges that loom are sizable, indeed, the NSIC is surely well positioned for the future.

BACK TO CAMPUS The anchor of Augustana’s on-campus athletic facilities is KirkebyOver Stadium--one of the premiere football venues in NCAA Division II.

President Rob Oliver announced in October 2007 that construction of Kirkeby-Over Stadium would begin soon on the site of the Vikings’ practice field at 37th Street and Lake Avenue. Through the generosity of Kari and Bob Hall, that dream has come to fruition and given the Vikings the on-campus facility they have been missing for half a century. It was the Halls who were responsible for bringing football back to campus at Augustana. The Halls donated $6.1 million towards the construction of Kirkeby-Over Stadium.

First on-campus field (unamed), circa 1925-1940 Picture date unknown

Kirkeby-Over Stadium honors the memory of Kari Hall’s father and mother, Percy Kirkeby and Elizabeth Markley Kirkeby-Over.

Percy Kirkeby graduated from Augustana in 1947. He was a veteran of World War II, having served with the Army Air Corps in Italy. An English major, he was a Rhodes Scholarship candidate, active in debate and speech and was the editor of the Mirror, Augustana’s student newspaper. He was killed in a plane crash in 1951. Elizabeth Markley majored in sociology at Augustana and graduated in 1944. She was president of the Athenian Society and was a member of the Augie debate squad. She died in 1994.

Kari Hall majored in sociology at Augustana and graduated in 1969. Bob Hall attended Augustana and is currently the equipment manager for the football program. Kirkeby-Over Stadium was designed by TKDA, a specialty architecture and engineering firm based in the Twin Cities. The Winkels Group in Sioux Falls managed the project. The facility features a FieldTurf surface in a bowl venue with seating for approximately 6,500, including 2,200 chairback seats. Fans are also able to watch the action from grass berms in the end zones.

Second on-campus field (unamed), 1941-1957 Pictured in 1955

Luxurious suites, a spacious press box and private media booths border the west sideline of the stadium. The facility also boasts high definition television monitors in each suite and plenty of connection options for use by media. The new facility is Augustana’s third on-campus football venue. The College relocated to Sioux Falls in 1918 and built the first field in the late 1920s. It was located behind the current administration building, East Hall and Old Main.

Construction on a new stadium, complete with bleachers and press box, began in 1941 where the Statue of Moses and the Morrison Commons stand today. Augustana began playing its home games at Howard Wood Stadium in 1958.

Kari and Bob Hall have been generous contributors to Viking athletics for many years. Their $1 million gift in 2005 helped build the Hall Football Complex attached to the Elmen Center and near the new Kirkeby-Over Stadium.

Bob’s father and mother, Bill and Irene Hall, were also longtime contributors to Augustana, and their gift in the 1980s helped construct the Elmen Center, in which the Hall Sports Forum is named in their honor. Bill and Irene also provided a variety of other gifts to Augustana athletics which assisted with facility upgrades and continue to assist with on-going annual scholarships and operations. All told, the family has gifted and pledged more than $11.1 million to Augustana. Kirkeby-Over Stadium, 2009-Present Pictured in 2009 AUGUSTANA FOOTBALL | 101


HALL FOOTBALL COMPLEX The Hall Football Complex and Sanford Gymnasium opened in November of 2007. The 28,000 square-foot, two-level building is attached to the south side of the Elmen Center. The addition has improved facilities for the student-athletes and coaches who are part of the Augustana football program and provides muchneeded indoor practice facilities for all 18 Viking teams.

The first floor of the facility houses the Hall Football Complex. Included are a locker room with 100 lockers, a large weight room, meeting rooms, offices, training room and many other amenities. Two regulation-size college wood basketball courts are on the second floor in the Sanford Gym. The gym features a state-of-the-art playing surface, curtains that can separate the courts and baskets that can be lowered under 10 feet for use with youth camps.

Until the Sanford Gym was constructed, the Elmen Center Hall Sports Forum was the only indoor area available for practice, intramurals, and gym recreation functions. Completed in 1989, the Elmen Center previously measured 84,000 square-feet. In 2003, through the Elmen Center Enhancement Project, 8,000 square-feet were added to the structure.

With the completion of the Hall Football Complex and Sanford Gym addition, the building span is now more than 120,000 square-feet.
