Mediacom Stadium

Mediacom Stadium is a multipurpose rectangular stadium in Des Moines, Iowa. Owned by Des Moines Public Schools and located on the campus of Drake University, it serves as the home of the university's men's and women's soccer programs, the home football venue for three Des Moines high schools, and a home field for four of the city's boys' and girls' soccer programs.

History

First announced in 2019, the stadium is a partnership between the school district and the university. The stadium allowed the university's teams to move on-campus, having previously played at Cownie Soccer Complex on the south side of the city. The stadium replaced multiple on-campus home stadiums for high school football; the scholastic soccer programs continue to play some games on campus to supplement Mediacom Stadium matches.

Uses

In addition to its primary tenants, the stadium hosts the state high school boys' soccer championship. Grand View University and the Des Moines Menace have also played home games at the facility.
