From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Boston University Track and Tennis Center houses a banked, 6 lane, 200m indoor track.[1] On January 28, 2013, Olympic Medalist Galen Rupp ran a facility record of 3.50.92 in the mile.[2] On February 9, 2018, Edward Cheserek improved that to 3:49.44, the #2 mark in history at the time.[3]

Information[]

The Track and Tennis Center (TTC) was constructed in 2002 to house an indoor track and tennis courts. The first track meet at the TTC occurred on December 6, 2002. The first tennis match followed two months later on February 9, 2003. The TTC replaced the Commonwealth Armory, which served as home to the Boston University indoor track team from 1979 through 2002.
