Northwestern unveils new scoreboards for arena
Northwestern Wildcat fans will be experiencing Welsh-Ryan arena differently in the 2014-15 season with the addition of four high-definition video displays.
The arena, home to men's and women's basketball, volleyball, and wrestling, will feature a 23-foot-wide display above centercourt that faces the north and south stands. Behind each basket will be two new 25-foot-wide scoreboards.
The new look "will tremendously enhance the experience of both our student-athletes and our dedicated fans," Northwestern volleyball head coach Keylor Chan said.
Work on the project is set to start in late June.
This is how the scoreboard behind the basket will look this fall at Northwestern's Welsh-Ryan Arena.
