Bob Nichols Court in Savage Arena to Feature New Design

Toledo, Ohio – The University of Toledo's John F. Savage Arena will feature a new design on Bob Nichols Court for the upcoming men's basketball, women's basketball and women's volleyball seasons.

The design change to the court is the first since a slight modification in 2013 from the original surface when the new Savage Arena debuted in 2008. The entire process took approximately two weeks and was performed by a Toledo-area business, Robert's Floors, that is owned by Joe Koch.

Originally known as Centennial Hall when it was built in 1976, the arena was renamed "Savage Hall" in 1988 and then became "Savage Arena" in 2008 as part of a $30 million renovation project.
