Kiefer Comes Through at Purdue University's Mackey
Arena
About the Facility
The Boilermakers basketball season is underway with new
basketball courts for Mackey Arena and the Purdue practice gym. The
new Keady Court competition floor and Cardinal Court practice floor
was installed in fall of 2011. The new Mackey Arena was rededicated
on November 11, 2011 in front of a sell-out crowd of 14,220. Keady
Court features custom staining and updated NCAA and Big 10 graphics
while both courts use the RezillChannel subfloor system from Connor
Sports Flooring.
What the Customer Has to Say
Steve Simmerman, Assistant Athletic Director at Purdue University
said, " the team at Kiefer really came through for us in a very
tight timeframe. Mackey Arena flooded and the main court needed to
be replaced in a hurry. Kiefer's expertise and diligence made the
renovation a huge success." Simmerman adds, "we wanted consistency
and quality at Purdue between our competition and practice courts.
Kiefer delivered quality systems in both Mackey Arena and our
practice facility."
