Seattle University Athletics' Wright Family Athletic Performance Center opened in the fall of 2024.
"We are thrilled to take this important step in the athletics facility master plan," said Director of Athletics Shaney Fink. "The Wright Family Athletic Performance Center reflects Seattle University's commitment to competitive excellence through student athlete-centered initiatives that focus on performance and well-being. By providing Redhawk student athletes with a state-of-the-art performance center, we are empowering our athletes with the resources necessary to achieve their aspirations."
The new Wright Family Athletic Performance Center, utilized by all Redhawk sport programs, includes all brand-new equipment, including cable machines and two-sided weight racks to optimize space, as well as a new sound system and television displays. A new flooring system will include an offset turf surface. In partnership with the College of Arts and Sciences, force plates and a camera monitoring system have been installed, allowing for enhanced biomechanics testing and research opportunities for the Department of Kinesiology.
An additional 600 square feet are dedicated to a fueling and nutrition station, rehabilitation space, and workstations for the athletic performance staff.
"We are proud to support the mission of Seattle University Athletics and invest in the new athletic performance center," said Jeff and Korynne Wright. "The athletic performance center will impact every student athlete at Seattle University, and we are excited to see their growth and development in action."
