The welcome addition of lacrosse to the College’s varsity sports offerings brings with it essential updates to Halas Hall to provide space for multiple teams, one of which includes the expansion and updating of the football locker room to accommodate the growth of the program.

Locker Room Features
• Minimum of 110 new sport-specific wooden lockers (32 additional lockers)

• Expanded restroom/shower area
• Equipment storage
