Lundholm Gymnasium is located in the Field House and is home to both the men’s and women’s basketball teams, the volleyball team and the gymnastics team. In December 2000, the University of New Hampshire athletic department received approval to begin the restoration of Lundholm Gymnasium. The gym, dedicated in name of Carl Lundholm in 1968, a 1921 graduate of the University and also the athletic department’s director from 1939 to 1963, had served as the primary home of the Wildcat basketball programs for several decades.

RENOVATED SUMMER 2014 JERRY AZUMAH PERFORMANCE CENTER

The Jerry Azumah Performance Center opened its doors the summer of 2003 to UNH Student-Athletes. A monetary donation by Azumah, a cornerback with the Chicago Bears of the NFL and 1999 recipient of the Walter Payton Award (top football player in Div. 1-AA), allowed the UNH athletic department to overhaul its existing strength and conditioning center. The renovated Center features 5,000 pounds of Olympic weights, 7,000 pounds of dumbbells, 14 Powerlift platform stations, 12 Hammer strength machines and an additional 15,000 pounds of weights. Other renovations included the offices of the strength and conditioning coordinators. FUELING STATION UNH Athletics added a new Fueling Station in the Field House during the Spring of 2015. The fueling station was created as a means to accomodate student- athletes and manage their nutrition on a time- sensitive schedule. ATHLETIC TRAINING ROOM

In late 2012, the University’s Space Allocation, Adapta- tion and Renewal Committee (SAARC) approved funding for the renovation and improvement of this important space, which treats upwards of 200 student-athletes daily for needs ranging from routine pre-practice taping to high-tech interventions like ultrasound and electrical muscle stimulation for injuries. Renovations began mid- December, at the beginning of winter break, and were completed February 1. The renovated facility has 12 treat- ment tables, a new taping station that brings the total to five, an expanded “wet room” with a large cold tub and a higher capacity ice machine, and a new rehabilitation exercise space. There also are new windows and a new ceiling, upgraded lighting, and a fresh coat of paint that have made the training room’s “dungeon” reputation a thing of the past. WATKINS CENTER FOR STUDENT-ATHLETE

The Watkins Center for Student-Athlete Excellence, which is located on the second floor of the Field House, will support all students who strive to balance the challenges of representing UNH as students and as Division I athletes. The $1.9 million dollar academic center will support individual and team-based programs for personal growth, life skills, academic support, career planning, networking, and community service. Features of the Watkins Center for Student-Athlete Excellence include complete wireless Internet capability and a welcoming environment where student-athletes will enjoy a comfortable, well- equipped and quiet study space staffed by advisors or tutors to assist them in optimizing their time. The center includes a functional resource room and quiet study space in addition to a breakout room and team/group meeting space in the main reading room that can fit up to 72 individuals.
