Ryan Lombardi, Ohio University vice president for Student Affairs, and Mark Ferguson, executive director of campus recreation, show The Post around the long-awaited Walter Fieldhouse. Read our latest story about the facility here.
The fieldhouse's artificial turf surface should be ready for Athletics use by early March.
The corners of each end zone were cut in accordance with the facility's blueprints to make room for a four-lane track.
The fieldhouse's track, drop-down netting system and long jump pit (pictured) will be installed in mid-April after Athletics completes its early-use period.
A pair of Pepsi insignias adorn the field as part of the corporation's contract with OU. Pepsi logos will also be featured on a pair of scoreboards that have yet to be installed in the facility.
Athletics and Marching 110 personnel will be able to get a bird's eye view of practices.
The front entranceway will eventually feature a desk, signage and a wall featuring the names of donors who contributed to the facility.
