Pool

Housed in the WAC, the indoor pool has undergone numerous renovations over the years.  It features six lanes for lap swimming, office space, adjoining men and women's locker rooms, and a 150 person viewing area. 

The sports medicine staff uses the pool for therapy and injury prevention while the college offers a number of scuba, kayak, and canoeing courses, which utilize the space for training.

The athletic department sponsors open swim during the academic year several evenings a week, which is open to the campus and outside communities. For an updated schedule, please see the schedule below which is also posted in the WAC pool lobby.
