"Millhiser Memorial Gymnasium, the Spiders' home court from 1922-46, will be restored and become a practice facility for the men's and women's programs, Athletic Director Jim Miller said yesterday. Millhiser Gym is attached to the Robins Center, home of UR hoops since 1972.
The interior facelift, scheduled to be performed by sports architectural firm HKS, Inc., will include a new court and baskets, heating and air conditioning, a sound system and enhanced lighting and windows. Also, a court-covering device will be installed so Millhiser can be used for hospitality events, commonly before and after basketball and football games. The Spiders are expected to play home football games at adjacent First Market Stadium starting in 2010."
Nice to see the commitment from Richmond. Part of me wishes we had been able to renovate Schmidt in some fashion.
