My 6 year old and I went to the WPI vs Clark men's basketball game.It was so much fun. There was some type of festival going on outside for students but they were offering hot chocolate and waffles to anyone there.The arena looked pretty new and very clean. There was a good bunch of people but not overly crowded. We really enjoyed the game.

This place is one of the older buildings on campus even though it doesnt seem like it from the things that are on the inside. But when you compare it to the newly build, beautiful rec center that they just built right next to it, this building seems very outdated, however they do have really nice seats in here and a good court for the basketball games

I come here for Robotics events a few times a year. It's a nice place, not huge, just the right size for the court. The robotics events are awesome. so many amazing volunteers come out to support the events and make them great. Be sure to make time for one this year.
