Home to the SNHU men’s and women’s soccer, men's and women's lacrosse, men's and women's tennis, and women's track & field teams, Mark A. Ouellette Stadium opened in early 2018. The facility also plays host to select field hockey contests.

The new complex houses a 1,500-seat stadium overlooking a Field Turf surface that includes Musco lighting. The field is lined for soccer, women's and men's lacrosse, and field hockey. A sound system, as well as a state-of-the-art video and scoreboard from Daktronics, adorns the new stadium. The facility, set on 23 acres, also includes an IAAF-certified, eight-lane Beynon Sports Surfaces BSS 1,000 track that surrounds the field, and a dedicated throws area next to the stadium. The new complex also includes a new six-court tennis facility. 

The concourse level of the facility accommodates ticket booths, concession stands and restrooms, while the inside of the facility features media and productions suites, a custom, two-level, 5,200-square foot strength and conditioning center, a training room, equipment room, expansive locker rooms, 16 offices for coaching staffs, and a Penmen Club space with sliding doors that open to a balcony with intimate views of the playing surface.

Originally named Penmen Stadium, the facility was dedicated and renamed for Mark Ouellette '77 on Oct. 6, 2022. Ouellette served on SNHU's Board of Trustees beginning in 1996 and was the Board Chair for nine years until his tenure came to an end in October 2022. Ouellette was captain of the men's basketball team during his time as a student, winning 53 games with the program from 1973-77, graduating as then-New Hampshire College's eighth all-time leading scorer (899) and ranking 16th in rebounds (210).
