BGSU dedicates new 'front door' to Perry Stadium

Student-athletes at BGSU have a new campus home for training and treatment.

The Sebo Athletic Center provides expanded facilities for both, along with meeting and office space for BGSU athletics. The north-end “front door” to Doyt L. Perry Stadium was dedicated Sept. 22 before the Falcons’ first home football game of the season, against Temple.

The 42,500-square-foot center is named for retired businessman Robert Sebo, the 1958 BGSU graduate and current trustee who gave the lead gift of $3.5 million for its construction.

Athletic Director Greg Christopher calls the first-floor strength and conditioning room and sports medicine facilities “the two key areas in the building.”

“It’s (the center) a terrific addition to the Bowling Green campus, and its impact on our student-athletes is going to be tremendous,” said Christopher. “This is a building that will help all 425 student-athletes and 18 teams.”
