For Reece Olcott, a love of hunting sparked a journey that led to collegiate competition in both archery and trap shooting at Mayville State.

The Detroit Lakes, Minn., native grew up enjoying the outdoors and wanted to improve his shooting skills for hunting. Today, he’s a dual-sport athlete, archery team captain, and an example of how dedication and consistency can open unexpected doors.

Whether he’s on the range, in the classroom, or outdoors with family and friends, Reece continues to embrace patience, focus, and perseverance, values that have guided him from the beginning.

Fall has arrived, and the Mayville State campus is looking as beautiful as ever. Whether you're heading to class, meeting friends, or simply taking in the view, it's great to be a Comet on this crisp autumn day! We're grateful to call this place "home."

10/01/2026

As we turn the calendar from September to October, let’s take a look back at one of Mayville State’s most-loved traditions, Homecoming/Farmers Bowl. The third week of September was filled with memorable moments and Comet pride.

Thank you to Mayville State student Alexis Restemayer and Alexis Restemayer Photography, as well as the Hillsboro Banner for sharing their great photos!

We extend our heartfelt thanks and congratulations to Mary Trudeau on her retirement from Mayville State University after 26 years of dedicated service.

Throughout her career, Mary has served in a variety of roles, including mailroom manager, executive assistant in Academic Affairs, and executive assistant to the president.

The finish line is getting closer in the Old Main renovation project!

Recent progress includes installation of flooring, which is nearing completion in the basement, while work with acoustical panels and wood veneer finishes continues in the theater. Punch list work is underway on the first, second, third, and fourth floors. Terrazzo work also continues in the main foyer as finishing touches are added throughout the building.

Each day brings us one step closer to welcoming students, faculty, staff, and visitors into this beautifully transformed historic landmark.
