Dan Beacom Track & Field

Named "The Dan Beacom Track Complex" after alumnus Dan Beacom, who passed away on May 24, 2023. A naming ceremony took place on August 31, 2023, dedicating the new complex to the former track athlete during the opening of the complex at the 8th annual Ag Bowl Football event.

Dan earned his bachelor's degree in sociology in 1979. While at DSU, he was a member of the track team. His ability to run middle distance made him a valuable member of the team, running the 440, 880, and nearly every relay – the sprint medley relay, mile relay, two-mile relay, and the distance medley relay.  

The facility features a eight lane 400 meter track and steeple chase pit. A new site for shot put, discus, hammer, and javelin.Â
