McLeod Center is a 7,000-seat multi-purpose arena on the campus of the University of Northern Iowa in Cedar Falls, Iowa. The arena opened November 18, 2006 with a volleyball game against Bradley. Each of the teams that will occupy the arena followed with games that weekend--men's basketball versus University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee on November 19, women's basketball against Iowa State on November 20, and wrestling versus the University of Iowa on November 21.


The McLeod Center replaced the UNI-Dome as the home of the school's basketball teams and West Gymnasium as the home of the volleyball and wrestling teams.

The UNI-Dome will remain in use for football.
