Investing in Champions On and Off the Field

Built to Rise

Stonehill College has always believed in the power of athletics to shape character and community. In 2022, we embraced a bold new era by joining NCAA Division I—bringing national exposure, postseason play, and new opportunities for our student-athletes. Now, we’re matching their commitment with a transformational investment in facilities—the Tom and Kathleen Bogan Arena and the Athletic Fields Complex—that will elevate Stonehill Athletics and provide enriching experiences for our students, alumni, and fans.

Tom and Kathleen Bogan Arena

Thanks to a generous lead gift from Tom ’72 and Kathleen Bogan, Stonehill will soon be home to Bogan Arena—a 120,000-square-foot, state-of-the-art sports facility featuring a basketball center and ice hockey rink, each with 2,500 seats, modern training spaces, locker rooms, and meeting areas as well as premium seating, concessions, and advanced media amenities.

Where Greatness is Forged

With our men’s and women’s ice hockey teams rising into Division I play, it’s time for a facility worthy of their momentum and mission. This space will host thrilling matchups and create unforgettable moments for our community.

Elevating Academics

Stonehill’s Division I status creates new academic opportunities for students by expanding hands-on learning across disciplines such as game operations, broadcasting, sports marketing, media and public relations, esports and facilities management. The Bogan Arena and new athletic fields will function as active learning labs, allowing students to apply classroom knowledge in real-world settings, build professional skills and develop valuable industry connections that strengthen career outcomes after graduation.

Strengthening Community

Built to Rise strengthens our community by creating vibrant gathering spaces for competition, celebration, and connection. From game days to concerts and campus-wide events, the new arena and fields will bring students, alumni, and families together, energizing campus life and building traditions that unite Skyhawks for generations.

Growing Enrollment

These new facilities will play a significant role in strengthening student recruitment and enrollment. Since transitioning to Division I, Stonehill has seen a 10 percent increase in enrollment from outside the Northeast, New York, and New Jersey, along with growing international representation that now includes students from 32 countries. Continued investment in premier athletic facilities will further differentiate the College in a competitive marketplace, enhance the College's visibility, and attract prospective students from an even broader geographic footprint.

Strengthening Stonehill's National Presence

These athletic facilities position Stonehill on the national stage, competing in major markets across the country and showcasing our student-athletes to wider audiences. This visibility not only elevates our athletic programs but also strengthens student recruitment, helping attract the next generation of Skyhawks and supporting enrollment growth for the College.
