This completed a $13 million project within the Case Center that include the Ike Brown (Questrom’76) Basketball Locker Room, which was unveiled to the men’s basketball team earlier this month along with the Todd & Anne Klipp Video Room, which will be used by both basketball programs. It was the most significant renovation project within an existing Athletics facility in department history. Photo by Matt Woolverton.
