The Walter Athletics Center houses a football strength and conditioning center, complete with meeting rooms and a sport performance center, offices for coaches of numerous varsity teams, a nutrition center and a dining facility. Its Kimberly K. Querrey and Louis A. Simpson Wing hold the student-athlete development center and dining facility.

The facility hosts first class training amenities, but also a compliment of spaces including lounges, team meeting rooms, and academic services and compliance offices. Integration of these critical components into one facility has streamlined the day-to-day flow for each student-athlete and allow continued success on and off the field. 

Ryan Fieldhouse and Wilson Field are contained inside of the Walter Athletics Center.
