Meyer Fitness Center Built in 1991 and located beneath Raider Stadium, the Daniel Meyer Fitness Center helps SOU student-athletes achieve personal health and fitness goals. And starting in the fall of 1999, the facility is bigger and better. The first floor features powerlifting equipment, including lifting platforms, squat racks, bench presses and stations for incline, decline and dumbbell lifts. Cardio and aerobic equipment such as stair climbers, treadmills, and exercise bikes, along with stationary and cable-pulley universal exercise equipment, is located upstairs. Fitness center access is free of charge to all SOU student-athletes.
Memberships are available for students, faculty and staff.
Much of the stadium construction price tag was covered by state building funds and by the sale of preferred seating in the stadium. The football field is named in honor of former Ashland postmaster John Fuller, an instrumental figure in the 1926 organization of what is now Southern Oregon University. Used for many years as a practice field, Fuller Field became the permanent site for Raider home games in 1955. Prior to that, the Raiders competed for nearly three decades at high school fields in Ashland, Medford and Grants Pass. Raider Stadium offers an excellent view of two prominent mountain ranges.
