"The McNair & Debi Tornow Court project continues to show Lees-McRae College's commitment to making the student-athlete experience excellent," said Vice President for Athletics and Club Sports
Craig McPhail. "Our floor looks beautiful. Working with SCS by Floor Action, Inc. was great as we looked at the floor project, the design, and the process to give us our best version. I am ecstatic for our volleyball and basketball student-athletes and coaches who will practice and compete on this state-of-the-art court."
After weeks of removing the previous floor, which was last resurfaced in the early 1980s, installing the new playing surface, and hand-painting the logos, the McNair & Debi Tornow Court will now have a softer, more friendly feel to the floor, creating better recovery as well as performance. The ReClaim II subfloor is an MFMA-PUR compliant floor and was installed with SCS by Floor Action, Inc.'s excellent workmanship, top quality materials, and durable finished products.
Lees-McRae will officially open the new floor on Wednesday, Sept. 22 as the women's volleyball team hosts Conference Carolinas opponent Converse at 7 p.m.
