College of Charleston Tennis Center
The College of Charleston tennis programs started a new era when the teams opened a new facility in Mt. Pleasant on January 17, 2004. The College of Charleston Tennis Center at Patriots Point gives the men’s and women’s tennis teams a first class complex including locker rooms, offices and lighted playing courts.
The facility features nine outdoor lighted courts and a 3,000 square foot clubhouse with tennis offices and locker rooms. For tennis fans, it has a two-tiered terrace that overlooks the courts for easy viewing. Instead of bleachers, spectators sit in low-country style rocking chairs. The courts also have computerized scoreboards that are updated by the players during the crossovers.
"We are very excited about our home,” said College of Charleston women’s tennis head coach Angelo Anastopoulo, who also serves as the director of the complex. “We have created as many fond memories on the new courts as we had on the Silcox courts. It is a first class facility and it has everything we could want in order to attract the highest level student- athletes. It allows us to take both programs to even greater heights and help attract top-notch competition to the Charleston area.”
J. Stewart Walker, Jr. Sailing Complex The J. Stewart Walker, Jr. Sailing Complex was dedicated on May 15, 1999, as the new home for the College of Charleston sailing program. The complex is located in the Patriots Point Marina in Mt. Pleasant, SC, just across the Cooper River Bridge from the Charleston peninsula.
Within the floating dock formatted complex, the Chrisman Sailing Center stands as a unique building with innovative features including outside sail retrieval, two maintenance bays, a team room with video presentation capabilities and a loft for storage and office use. The more than 400 feet of custom floating docks, named the Cato Docks, moor and store the fleets of 6 FJs, 18 420s, 8 Lasers and 10 J-22s.
The complex is situated next to the famous World War II carrier USS Yorktown, an exhibit in the Patriots Point Maritime Museum, which is adjacent to the marina.
