William H Pitt Athletic and Convocation Center
The William H. Pitt Athletic and Convocation Center is home to the thirty-two Pioneer Division I men’s and women’s programs. The three-level, 141,000-square-foot complex features four multipurpose basketball courts that seat 2,100 and can be easily converted for concert or convocation use.
The main level of the center houses the Athletic Communications suite and a four-court field house with indoor track and retractable batting and throwing cages. A floating wood floor is used for basketball and volleyball competitions.
The lower level of the Pitt Center received a major facelift in the summer of 2007. The 5,000-plus square-foot weight room now reflects a top level Division I weight room with the addition of state of the art weight training equipment, new Mondo rubberized flooring, lighting and a paint job that truly reflects the spirit of Pioneer Athletics. Other changes made were office renovations for men’s & women’s basketball and football, added locker room space and a total refurbishing of the aerobics room wood floor. The lower level also houses locker rooms for our athletic teams and members, the Pioneer Wrestling Room, Equipment Room and Athletic Training offices.
The upper level of the center houses the Department of Athletics suite of offices and a Student-Athlete Academic suite. Perched atop the Pitt Center is the Sky Box, a beautifully appointed room with terrace access that is used to host special guests during athletic events.
