Brigham Young University broke ground Monday on the previously announced Marriott Center Annex, which will house a practice facility and associated services for its men’s and women’s basketball programs. The new 38,000 square-foot building will connect to the east end of the Marriott Center, replacing the road that currently runs between the arena and the BYU Broadcasting Building. The Annex will feature a replica of the Marriott Center floor with additional shooting areas on both ends of the court. In addition, the facility will include a strength and conditioning center; a training room with hydrotherapy; office suites; meeting rooms; team lounge and study areas, and a hall of honor showcasing the history and tradition of BYU basketball.
