Field
House
It
has
hosted
Elvis
Presley,
President
Kennedy,
a
groundbreaking
ping-pong
match
and
basketball
games
that
made
history.
GW:
I
remember
walking
out
onto
the
court
and
if
it
was
a
big
game,
you
could
feel
the
noise.
The
noise
would
go
right
through
you
as
you
came
out
of
the
tunnel.
GW:
I
really
believe
this
place,
the
students,
the
fans,
helped
us
win
a
lot
of
games
during
my
time
I
coached
here.
It
was
that
type
of
place.
TM:
My
most
memorable
moment
was
my
senior
year.
We
had
just
finished
the
regular
season.
We
had
beaten
Virginia
in
the
last
game
of
the
season
and
then
the
fans
came
running
down
on
the
floor
and
picked
myself
and
Len
Elmore
up
and
paraded
us
around
the
floor
and
we
cut
down
the
nets.
It
was
a
very
magical
moment.
But
the
William
P.
Cole
Jr.
Student
Activities
Building,
better
known
as
Cole
Field
House,
doesnt
house
just
Marylands
memories.
Today,
the
building
holds
the
universitys
ambitions.
The
new
Cole
Field
House
will
bring
together
athletics,
collaborative
research,
and
innovative
academics.
First,
the
facility
will
house
the
Terrapin
Performance
Center.
KA:
This
project
allows
us
to
remain
competitive
and
that
it
is
really
going
to
help
us
from
a
recruiting
standpoint.
From
building
or
bringing
in
these
great
student
athletes
here
and
making
them
stronger
and
making
them
faster.
Most
projects
that
you
see
of
this
magnitude,
its
new
construction.
We
are
going
to
be
able
to
take
that
piece
of
history,
give
it
a
new
face,
and
have
it
live
forever.
The
facility
will
also
house
the
Academy
of
Innovation
and
Entrepreneurship.
Charged
with
exposing
every
Maryland
student
with
courses
in
innovation
and
entrepreneurial
thinking.
DC:
Traditionally
the
University
of
Maryland
has
had
a
25-year
rich
history
in
innovation
and
entrepreneurship.What
we
really
lacked
to
date
is
a
central
resource
and
a
central
location
that
engages
all
students
of
all
majors
from
all
schools
and
colleges.
Cole
is
going
to
play
a
really
important
role
in
preparing
our
students
to
have
an
impact
on
the
world
when
they
graduate.
The
third
element
of
the
new
vision
for
Cole
Field
House
is
the
Center
for
Sports
Medicine,
Health
and
Human
Performance.
A
first-of-its
kind
facility,
the
Center
will
bring
together
the
faculty
from
the
University
of
Maryland,
Baltimores
School
of
Medicine
with
the
faculty
from
the
A.
James
Clark
School
of
Engineering,
School
of
Public
Health,
and
others
in
College
Park.
TM:
The
word
is
collaboration.
This
will
be
the
signature
program,
the
signature
project
for
them
working
together.
It
is
a
tremendous
example
of
how
cross
disciplinary
cooperation
can
occur
and
I
think
this
facility
will
really
set
an
example
for
other
universities
across
the
country.
The
collaborative
research
planned
for
the
Center
is
wide-ranging,
including
the
study
of
nutrition,
muscle
physiology,
biomechanics,
occupational
health,
robotics,
concussion
and
neuroscience.
AP:
Its
very
important
for
us
to
be
able
to
interact
with
the
scientists
in
the
various
disciplines.
As
surgeons
and
doctors
who
take
care
of
athletes,
we're
obviously
clinically
applying
what
they're
learning
and
what
they're
studying.
For
us
to
bring
the
relevance
of
the
patients
to
them
and
for
them
to
bring
the
basic
science
discipline
to
us
allows
the
two
of
us
to
work
together
in
a
way
that
develops
the
best
possible
science.

BH:
When
you
start
to
bring
together
the
entrepreneurial
mindset,
the
engineering
and
physical
sciences
with
the
medicine,
with
kinesiology,
public
health,
and
others.
I
think
thats
what
the
advantage
of
the
center
is
that
team
science
approach.
We
could
think
of
it
as
a
new
model
for
the
21st
century.
A
world-class
athletic
performance
center.
A
home
for
university-wide
innovation
and
entrepreneurship.
A
cutting
edge
collaborative
research
facility
that
brings
together
two
powerhouse
higher
education
institutions.
That
is
the
vision
for
the
new
Cole
Field
House.
TM:
To
repurpose
this
building
and
put
it
back
into
a
facility
for
the
21st
century.
I
think
is
an
exceptional
opportunity
for
the
university.
GW:
We
have
to
maintain
this
place,
make
it
better,
and
make
it
a
central
part
of
the
university
What
it
will
be,
will
be
special.
KP:
Its
an
incredible
exciting
day
at
Maryland.
There
is
a
new
vision
here.
We
should
be
thinking
of
ourselves
as
the
number
one
university
in
the
world.
And
that
is
exactly
the
goal
we
should
have.
There
are
nuisances,
there
are
differences.
Schools
have
things
that
make
them
unique.
We
are
going
to
find
what
makes
us
unique,
we
are
going
to
become
famous
for
it,
we
are
going
to
celebrate
it,
and
we
are
going
to
make
University
of
Maryland
the
envy
of
the
world.
