Renovation Of Freitas Has Gone Out For Bid > New Home for UConn Women Volleyball

$2.5 million is really nothing, about the same amount to build the hockey rink in the first place. I would think maybe building something more modern rathe rather than renovating a generic metal barn would be a better way to go but this might be the cheapest route to a nice facility. A brand new facility could include a beach volleyball court with a retractable roof or open-air type setup.
Beach Volley exhibition/practice courts seem like an inexpensive way to provide something fun and unique for players and even students. With warmer weather the norm nowadays it could get plenty of use and be a nice recruiting amenity. These upgrades all feel very P5-ish.

While they're at it, might as well include regulation bocce, cornhole, and of course, Oozeball. The pacific coast schools may be looking to expand on the atlantic side. We'll throw a few games down Hammonasset's way but UConn has to keep the concessions.

 
Hopefully the roof height is sufficient enough. Wouldn’t want volley balls bouncing off the ceiling.
 
Pucks fly a lot higher than volley balls. LOL.
When I shoot I puck I‘m not trying to shoot it vertically in the air. A volley ball’s trajectory is more vertical, whereas a hockey puck is more horizonta.
 
Very nice and it looks the the team were very excited and appreciated their new facility.
 
Building looks great, sizeable crowd, and going to lose to Hofstra lol. Yikes
 
Gotta be looking at a coaching change. 1-4 with losses to Lehigh and Hofstra. Only win coming in 5 sets against West Carolina. Not good enough
