Although the Saint Mary's basketball programs posted big wins this weekend against Bay Area rival University of San Francisco, the teams have something else to celebrate.
On Jan. 11, the college announced plans for an estimated $13 million renovation to McKeon Pavilion.
The new Student Athlete Performance Center will feature facilities dedicated to the school's division I athletes. Facilities will include a weight room, training and on-site sports medicine area, a new women's volleyball locker room and athletic offices.
The renovation will also expand seating in the gym by 500 seats.
The college has secured $9 million through donations and will look to make up the remaining $4 million through corporate sponsors and ticket sales.
Construction will begin in the spring of 2015.
