The Qwest Center could lose some of their UNO sports contracts due to a new stadium being built by Creighton University. Creighton will start building a new stadium this month that will house the Women's basketball and volleyball teams for Creighton.
So why are we talking about Creighton if its not about basketball at the Qwest? Well, the women's volleyball and basketball are currently housed in the Civic Auditorium. When this new arena is built the only sport to play in the Civic would be the Omaha Beef (arena football).
The Omaha World Herald stated that UNO may be interested in moving their athletics to the Civic if renovations took place. This could take the hockey team away from the Qwest which, along with Creighton men's basketball are the only two permanent sports to play in the Qwest Center.
