Baptist Health Arena


 * Alumni Coliseum (Paul S. McBrayer Court at Baptist Health Arena) has been the home arena for Eastern Kentucky University basketball since the 1963-64 season. The volleyball team has played in the coliseum since 1991. The arena seats 6,500 fans for athletic endeavors and up to 8,000 for other events.


 * The coliseum features a wooden laminated cross-arched roof spanning 309 feet and providing an unobstructed view of events held in the main auditorium. A total of 616,276 board feet of lumber form the 170 beams and roof, which arches gracefully 81 feet above the floor level. The wood is southern pine finished in its natural beauty.


 * Before the start of the 2006-07 season, the basketball floor was redone with new Eastern athletic logos, brand new scoreboards were added above the north and south bleachers and new shot clocks were installed above the basketball rims.


 * In 2013, a state-of-the-art Daktronics HD videoboard was added on the wall on the east end of the arena
