As one of the newest state-of-the-art facilities in the country, the CAC boasts an 8-lane, 50-meter pool with two 6-foot moveable bulkheads. The facility also showcases a full diving set-up that includes two cement-based 1-meter springboards, two cement-based 3-meter springboards, as well as 5-meter, 7-meter, and 10-meter platforms. The CAC also received two digital FACILITIES scoreboards, largely due to the fundraising efforts of the Hackin’ Hokies, Too. Aside from being a premier competition facility, the CAC also provides the team and local townspeople with a therapy pool for physical therapy, injuries, arthritic persons and rehabilitation, and a family/leisure pool with a two-story slide, water walking lanes, zero depth entrance, water jets and other recreational features. Cardio and weight room facilities and state-of-the-art locker rooms are also among the CAC’s many resources. 2 FACILITIES “The CAC has been an incredible addition for our program. We have been able to evolve our training and recruiting in noticeable ways already and it is such a pleasant environment to spend the day.” NED SKINNER “The new facility has truly brought a renewed enthusiasm “The new facility will create and atmosphere to the whole diving program.
