| Complete! During the winter months the
sounds of hammers, saws and heavy machinery filled the air as work began
on the expansion of the University of Oregon varsity athlete weight room.
The only sounds heard throughout the weight room now are the familiar heavy
thuds of a more familiar type of heavy machinery.
Construction recently finished on the expansion
of the varsity athlete weight room located within the Len Casanova Athletic
Center. The additional square footage, to what was already a very
spacious facility, and natural light have created a bright and energetic
atmosphere for University of Oregon student-athletes to continue their
dedicated and consistent work habits. With the finishing touches
being made to the interior of the weight room this summer, the house is
rock'n again as work is performed on any one of the 14 new platforms, 22
squat areas and 12 bench and/or incline stations.
Along with a wide variety of additional new equipment,
the expansion has greatly enhanced the ability of the strength and conditioning
staff to provide efficient and effective training to student athletes at
the University of Oregon |
