St. Norbert College is proud to move into the new Donald J. Schneider Stadium located on De Pere’s near west side.
The 2,454-seat facility will house the Green Knights in football, men’s and women’s soccer and men’s and women’s outdoor track and field.
The stadium complex is named after major donor Don Schneider, a 1957 graduate of St. Norbert College. Schneider is the retired CEO of Schneider National Inc., one of the nation’s largest transportation and logistics companies. Schneider is a for- mer member of the college’s Board of Trustees and was also an adjunct professor at the college during the 1960s.
The playing field within the stadium is named in honor of Howard “Chick” Kolstad, St. Norbert’s football coach from 1960 to 1978. Immensely respected as a coach and person, Kolstad's 19 years produced a 96-76-5 record mainly against scholarship-level opponents. A fierce competitor who once proclaimed he would schedule Notre Dame if the Irish would agree to it, he had 12 winning seasons and two others at .500.
