Midland RockHounds Head Into 2026 with New Daktronics Display
Outfield video display installed ahead of the first pitch of the season
BROOKINGS, S.D. – Mar. 26, 2026 – Daktronics (NASDAQ: DAKT) of Brookings, South Dakota, has partnered with the Midland RockHounds to manufacture and install a new LED video display in the outfield at Momentum Bank Ballpark in Midland, Texas. The installation took place in January, and the right-field display is ready to inform and entertain baseball fans in 2026 and beyond.
“The new video board is sure to captivate fans of all ages with high-quality visual entertainment, enhancing the in-game experience,” said Midland RockHounds General Manager Shelly Haenggi. “We’re thrilled for the upcoming RockHounds season, and many to come, with the range of presentation options it offers.”
Video Display Details
The new outfield video display measures approximately 32.5 feet high by 66 feet wide and features a 10-millimeter pixel spacing to deliver crisp, clear visuals to fans throughout the ballpark. The display features industry-leading environmental protection to ensure it operates as expected in the Texas outdoors.
“Working to bring a new video board – one of the biggest displays in the Texas League – is something that will immediately elevate the game-day experience at Momentum Bank Ballpark,” said Charlie Durrenberger, Daktronics sales representative. “It was great to work with the City of Midland and the RockHounds' leadership on this project from the early stages through completion.”
