Trojan Arena
Trojan Arena is a 6,000-seat arena that is home to the Troy Trojans men's and women's basketball, volleyball and track programs. It is also used for the University's commencement ceremonies and special events. The arena replaced the University's longtime basketball and events facility, Sartain Hall, which opened in 1962. Trojan Arena has been considered to be one of the most modern and technologically advanced basketball facilities in the southeastern United States since it was completed in 2012. The total cost to build the arena was $40 million.
The arena is designed to be used for other multi-purpose reasons, including concerts, banquets, indoor sports tournaments, and graduation ceremonies.
The facility was constructed by Whaley Construction Company, and the architects were Goodwyn, Mills and Cawood, and Populous.[citation needed]
Trojan Arena seating features 5,200 chair-back seats, a band/student section with 600 bleacher seats, and seven upper-level suites and an exclusive Stadium Club area for donors, while also having floor seating for students and other guests. The arena features an indoor LED ribbon-board that stretches around the entire upper-level of the arena. The ribbon board is just one of only two of its kind in the Sun Belt Conference. Daktronics also designed, manufactured, and installed two 767-square-foot (71.3 m2) 15HD LED video/scoring system boards, which are the largest end-wall installations Daktronics has ever produced for an indoor college facility. The court level of the arena features eight sections of Daktronics LED scorer’s tables as well. They each measure 2 feet (0.61 m) high by more than 9 feet (2.7 m) wide and can be connected in any configuration to showcase student athletes, display additional statistical information in real time, recognize sponsors and promote upcoming events. The arena was featured in LED Magazine for its use of state-of-the-art technology throughout the arena.
The lower-level of the arena features weight rooms, staff offices, player lounge, HD video rooms, recruit lounge, and locker rooms.
Among the other features of the arena are a three-tiered rotunda at the main entrance, an interior concourse with concession stands and a food court-styled dining center with specialty food items.
Under the main playing court sits two full-size basketball courts that serve as basketball and volleyball practice areas. The 10,000-square-foot (930 m2) space is shared by both the men's and women's basketball teams, as well as the indoor women's volley team.
The arena also is home to the Troy University Sports Hall of Fame. A unique design of this Hall of Fame facility was to include digital displays of its members, as well as touch-screen displays that showcase Troy sports history in all sports. The displays are located adjacent to the main entrance rotunda. These displays are the only ones of their kind in the Sun Belt Conference. The inaugural Hall of Fame Induction Banquet, held August 10, 2012, was the first event held in the new facility.
