Scope Of Work
The brand new Whitney Athletic Center is a state-of-the-art, 90,000sqft – $60M facility that will serve as the central hub for all athletics for the University of Delaware. It was built as a part of the Build Our Home fundraising initiative. The Blue Hens hope that this new athletics center will help springboard them to the next level of college sports.
This new facility exhibits new and improved athletic training facilities, study areas, gameday amenities, and a 10,000 square foot fitness center. It also upgraded the existing stadium and press boxes. UD enlisted the services of HOK Architects, who specialize in these types of facilities, to design the project. HOK chose Regupol’s AktivPro Roll flooring system for other D1 collegiate projects because of its safety and performance values. HOK knew who to call, and Abacus Sports outfitted this facility with an Regupol AktivPro Roll system.
