The College of Wooster athletic department will host an open house to let fans take a look inside newly-renovated Timken Gymnasium on Saturday, Sept. 22 from 9 a.m. until 12 p.m. Fans will be able to purchase season tickets for the 2018-19 men's basketball season at this time (details in gray box for those unable to attend).

Additional Men's Basketball Season Ticket Purchase and Pick-Up Dates

Purchase and pick up your tickets on Saturday, Oct. 27 from 11 a.m. - 2 p.m. OR Wednesday, Nov. 7 from 5 p.m. - 7 p.m. at the Scot Center lobby ticket booth located on the second floor of the Scot Center. These are the only days and times for purchase and pick up of your season tickets in advance of the first game.
If you prefer to wait until the first game, tickets will be available for pick up at the Scot Center ticket window the night of the first game or at any of the subsequent men's basketball home games. The ticket window will open for pick up and single-game sales one (1) hour before each game.

About the Renovation:

This summer, construction crews completed a $5 million renovation of the College's athletics and events facility. Phase I featured a complete teardown and replacement of the 50-year-old bleachers and gym floor. Wooster's new court is made of high-grade northern hard maple, and was installed by The Ohio Floor Company.

The new bleachers, supplied by Farnham Equipment Company and manufactured by Hussey Seating, consist of 636 chair-back seats and 676 bleacher seats with backs in the lower level and 1,302 all-polymer, ergonomically-designed traditional bleacher seating in the upper level. Fans will notice improved hand rails in each aisle, and the facility is wheelchair accessible with 21 designated spaces.

Other noticeable upgrades include new, larger scoreboards, supplied by Sports Equipment Specialists, a much-improved sound system by Precision Multi-Media, new basketball hoops, replacement padding around the gym, and a fresh coat of paint.
