DAEMEN COLLEGE ATHLETIC COMPLEX
Since opening in 1984, the Daemen College Athletic Complex has acted as the main hub for Daemen College Athletics, housing Lumsden Gymnasium as well as the College's athletic office space, athletic training room, weight room, cardio room and locker rooms. The Athletic Complex sits adjacent to Duns-Scotus Hall and also houses the Daemen College Athletic Hall of Fame.
LUMSDEN GYMNASIUM
Lumsden Gymnasium is the home venue for men's and women's basketball and women's volleyball while also serving as a practice facility for several of Daemen's other intercollegiate teams, including men's and women's soccer, men's and women's track and field and cheerleading.
The Gymnasium itself, named for Charles L. Lumsden, Chairman of the Board of Trustees at the time it was built, and his wife Gloria B. Lumsden, also provides a facility for several of the athletic department's functions throughout the academic year including the Student-Athlete Welcome Back Night and "Blue Madness" - a pep rally style kickoff event to the college basketball season.
ATHLETIC TRAINING ROOM
The Athletic Training Room, located within the Athletic Complex and adjacent to Lumsden Gymnasium, provides a space for Daemen's staff of Athletic Trainers to provide the best and most comprehensive health care to Daemen's student-athletes.
