In 2006, SUNY Canton received $18 million to construct an ice rink and convocation center. The scope of the initial project changed dramatically because of a need for a new athletic facility.
The new project is estimated to exceed $40 million, and will include a field house with a regulation hard court that will be used by the SUNY Canton basketball and volleyball teams. The rest of the field house will have a synthetic surface that can be used by other SUNY Canton sports teams, students and community members.
The new facility will have a new ice arena along with locker rooms for both SUNY Canton teams and visiting teams, a press box and ample seating for spectators. There will also be locker rooms for both indoor and outdoor sports as well as a new athletic training facility.
The new facility will have a brand new fitness center with all state-of-the-art equipment.
There will also be a lap pool adjacent to to the fitness center availble to the SUNY Canton and outside community.
In addition there will be office space for all athletic personnel, classroom space and study areas for student-athletes.
