University of Arizona’s east side is one big construction zone right now, as five different projects are ongoing to upgrade the school’s athletic facilities.
There’s the building of the new Indoor Sports Center, the overhaul of the east side of Arizona Stadium, the facelift to softball’s Hillenbrand Stadium, the upgrades to the Hillenbrand Aquatic Center, and then the improvement to McKale Center’s locker rooms.
“We’ve got five different projects going on all at once that somehow are all going to get done by the time next year comes around,” UA athletic director Dave Heeke said Thursday.
That sounds overwhelming, but Heeke assured that all the projects are on schedule, though he joked that the Arizona Stadium renovations might come down to the wire.
