Vikings Auxiliary Gym

In order to accommodate the athletics program’s rapid growth, the College converted the existing pool into a practice gym.The new practice gym features a wall-to-wall athletic wood flooring system along with custom sport court striping and branding. New wall padding, scoreboard and basketball shot clocks, and new volleyball and basketball equipment were also installed.

“This new space provides the highest quality practice and recreation space for our students and community partners, said Sister Marcella Marie Garus, Villa’s president. “It eliminates scheduling conflicts and helps student athletes adjust their schedules to have more time for their academic pursuits. Villa’s athletic center complex truly stands out for a college this size.”

The 6,600 square foot gym houses a regulation-size practice basketball court and a volleyball court. The renovation, which was completed by Kirst Construction, took 6 months and is one of the largest construction projects since the campus was built.
