COLE FIELD HOUSE

35925

The William P. Cole, Jr. Student Activities Building, more commonly known as Cole Field House, was the home of the University of Maryland basketball teams from 1955 until it was replaced by Comcast Center in 2002.

When college basketball was achieving its most explosive growth - from the late 1950’s to the late 1970’s – there was one college gymnasium on the East Coast that sat as many as 12,000 fans. Cole Field House epitomized the new big-time, main event status of college hoops, the sport of network TV and emerging legends. There was not a bad seat when it opened, and throughout its life there was not a better place to watch a game. It was a building where history was routinely made, and fans could feel the echo of tradition and experience the electricity of top-flight college basketball.
