Hillsdale student-athletes will now have the opportunity to practice alongside Olympic medalists and World Cup champions.

In addition, Hillsdale’s Halter Center plans to build four additional combination international bunker and skeet fields. As a result, Hillsdale College will be able to host World Cup championships, National Olympic and Paralympic team selection matches, regional qualifier matches and International Grand Prix events.
