MUNCIE, Ind. — At long last, Ball State is getting an indoor practice facility for its football team.

The Board of Trustees on Friday afternoon approved a proposal on an indoor facility that would also be used for soccer, baseball and softball.

The facility will cost about $15 million and will be funded entirely through donations. There has already been about $13.7 million raised.

Construction could begin as early as next spring and would take approximately 12 months. The facility would be next to Scheumann Stadium in the area where there are two practice fields.
