Morris Gymnasium

Home of the Knights men’s and women’s basketball teams on the Cochran campus, Morris Gymnasium offers an on-campus facility that offers a great home court advantage while occupying a unique location in the heart of campus.

Originally built in 1968, the facility recently received a major face-lift with new paint, branding and upgraded support spaces. The interior of the gym was completely re-painted with fresh colors representing the primary MGA colors of purple, black and grey. New branding elements have also been added in addition to new scorer’s tables for press row.

The facility features a gameday Athletic Training space as well as numerous locker rooms for the Knights basketball teams to call home as well as dedicated space for visiting teams and officials. A laundry facility for the basketball programs is also on site.

Coaches offices as well as a Team Room/Film Room are located on the upper level of the gym while also offering a concessions and ticketing space at the entry. Two large trophy cases also are featured as part of the entry-way of the Gym which highlight some of the top teams of the past for MGA men’s and women’s basketball. Gameday parking is available just outside the main entrance to Morris Gymnasium.

Bleacher seating aligns both sidelines and offers a solid viewing experience for spectators and players alike.

The facility also plays host to the Varsity Athletics weight room which features new branding elements and upgraded equipment that is utilized by all six teams that compete at the Cochran campus. Additional storage and hospitality space is also available on site at Morris Gymnasium.
