Retreiver Athletic Center Add-on
The
UMBC Athletics Department is
outgrowing its current spaces. Today's student population requires larger
and more diverse opportunities than previously provided. Many locker rooms,
training areas, and storage areas are shared by too many organizations.
In 2000 and 2001, planning began for a renovation to the existing
Retriever Athletic Center. Many schemes of addition plans have since been
reviewed. Men's basketball will receive totally new locker rooms in the new
2-story renovation addition, along with senior training room and a small media
area. A small amount of extra storage area would be provided to free up
other resources through the RAC. Women's basketball will take over the old
men's locker-room, which will be renovated before use. The addition is on the
east side of the RAC between the entry vestibules and adjacent to the
exterior tennis courts. One tennis court may be removed to maintain vehicular
access to the outdoor pool.
