The arena was opened in 2022 to replace T.M. Elmore Gymnasium, which is northeast of LCS. The facility holds up to 6,000 people for basketball games. Other than basketball and volleyball games, the arena also hosts graduation ceremonies, and other functions of Alabama A&M University. It also contains locker rooms for the team, training rooms, a Hall of Fame honoring past Alabama A&M student athletes, and a kitchen to help provide meals for on-campus events.[1]
