Since 2017, Marquette has had the luxury of the “dome,” a giant tent-like structure located at Valley Fields. When it was constructed in 2017, the $3.6 million dollar project became essential for teams at Marquette to practice in during the winter months. Providing shelter from the wind, snow and other cold winter conditions, the dome remains a haven for Marquette’s collegiate, club and intramural teams alike.
For Marquette women’s soccer, the season usually ends sometime before the cold fully arrives, but this season has forced them to adapt.
The team has played their first two games inside the bubble and has continued to practice there.
