4 TENNIS BUCK BOULDIN TENNIS CENTER Middle Tennessee s Buck Bouldin Tennis Center consists of 14 courts, with six newly renovated varsity courts finished during the fall of 2001 and a scoreboard provided by the Mark Tulloch family. The addition of the Tulloch Family scoreboard helps bring an upgraded feel to an already outstanding facility. Mark Tulloch and his family have been extremely generous to the MT tennis program and helping the Blue Raiders remain competitive with the facility upgrades. The eight courts closest to Murphy Center were resurfaced with three inches of asphalt during the summer of These eight courts were converted to just six courts and are used as the varsity courts for both the men s and women s tennis teams at Middle Tennessee. The new varsity courts are outfitted with divider fencing between each and are painted blue with gray outlines. New blue windscreens with the MT logo line the fences around the complex, and there is a walkway between the varsity courts and the remaining eight. Also, bleacher seating with canopies was built in the middle for fans at the varsity courts. The $150,000 project was completed at the beginning of September 2001, just in time for the 15th Annual Pro-Am. The Tennis Center also includes offices, team rooms, restrooms, an equipment storage facility, and a patio/reception area for viewing and the posting of events. The remaining eight courts are for University and public use and are lighted. In addition to hosting Middle Tennessee matches, the complex has played host to numerous Ohio Valley Conference championships, Sun Belt Conference Shootouts and various state and regional USTA events. #BLUERAIDERS 3

5 ADAMS TENNIS COMPLEX The 70,000-square-foot complex sports eight indoor tennis courts, two electronic scoreboards, pro shop, and lounge area with a mezzanine for spectator viewing. The Adams Indoor Tennis Complex, a joint partnership between the City, MTSU and the Christy-Houston Foundation, becomes the official home of the Blue Raider tennis program. The tennis project was part of the university s $80 million Centennial Campaign announced in April We are stepping up our game in all of our 17 sports as we make our presence known in Conference USA, Middle Tennessee President Sidney A. McPhee said at the groundbreaking ceremony. This facility will make the Murfreesboro area a tennis destination. It will allow us to bid to be host of major competitions, including the C-USA championships, which in turn will create economic opportunities for the city and county. The tennis project, which was funded by a combination of university, city and private funds, received an additional boost from the nonprofit Christy-Houston Foundation, whose president Bob Mifflin presented a $500,000 check to the City of Murfreesboro toward the effort. The Murfreesboro Parks and Recreation Department operate the facility, allowing Blue Raider tennis practices and matches to take place from November until March while also providing opportunities for the city to host other tournaments throughout the year. The new facility also will give the Murfreesboro community more opportunities to watch the Blue Raiders in action without traveling to Nashville. The ATC was home to the 2016 Conference USA Women s Tennis Championship, 2016 ITA Women s Ohio Valley Regional, 2017 C-USA Men s Tennis Championship, 2017 ITA Summer Circuit, and 2017 ITA Women s Ohio Valley Regional. MT will play all home matches in 2017 and 2018 on the indoor and outdoor courts at the ATC, and admission is always free to the Blue Raiders matches. 4 GOBLUERAIDERS.COM
