Opened in 1949, the arena has a seating capacity of 9.604 and is home to the Oregon State Beavers' basketball, wrestling, volleyball, and gymnastics teams.〔 It is named after famed basketball coach Amory T. "Slats" Gill who compiled a 599-392 () record in 36 seasons, from 1928 to 1964. The court is named after another famed OSU coach, Ralph Miller, who led the men's basketball program from 1971 to 1989. The building also houses a weight room, equipment center, locker rooms, and offices for the Oregon State University athletic department and its teams. Inside, on the south wall of Gill Coliseum is a painted mural of many former Oregon State men's basketball players including Gary Payton, Brent Barry, AC Green, and Steve Johnson. ==History== Prior to Gill, the Men's Gymnasium was used to host intercollegiate basketball games. That building is the current Langton Hall.〔 Gill Coliseum opened in 1949 and housed the Horner Museum in the basement until 1995 when the museum closed. The facility has a sports medicine center, located on the lower level of the coliseum, that provides injury prevention and rehabilitation services. The center includes cardiovascular equipment and improved training facilities. Part of a $7 million renovation of the arena, other projects include making Gill compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act and painting the exterior. During the summer of 2009 the outside was sandblasted prior to applying the new paint and new windows were added on the East and West sides.〔 The court has gone numerous remodels as Oregon State has updated their branding. Prior to the 2013-2014 season, the court was updated to reflect the athletic department's re-branding, along with some of the graphics surrounding the lower seating. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gill Coliseum」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
