Hoops Family Field at Veterans Memorial Soccer Complex is a 1,256-capacity soccer-specific stadium in Huntington, West Virginia where it is the home of Marshall University's men's and women's soccer teams.

History

It was built on the former site of the Veterans Memorial Fieldhouse, which was demolished in order to build the stadium. An inaugural double-header took place on August 23, 2013. The men's team held a scrimmage against Marshall alumni from past years resulting in a 2–0 victory. The women's team faced the Campbell University Fighting Camels and won 3–0.[3]

The stadium hosted the 2016 Conference USA Men's Soccer Tournament,[4] 2023 and 2024 Sun Belt Tournaments, and NCAA Tournament games. "The Vet" has hosted the Mountain State Derby five times with the Thundering Herd amassing a record of 3-0-2. The 2024 regular season edition of the Mountain State Derby was the highest-attended soccer game ever in West Virginia with 3,157 in the crowd, beating out the 2023 Sun Belt Championship game by 6 people.
