Football Weight Room Fundraising Campaign
The University of Memphis Athletics Department is about halfway to its goal of fundraising money for a 12,000 square-foot weight room for the Tiger football team. The weight room is part of a $10 million campaign that will also include a covered indoor practice field. The 12,000 square-foot weight room would be connected to the existing Murphy Athletic Complex on the facility's east wing, which will let players move from the locker room, to the weight room, to the indoor field without having to leave the complex. The indoor practice facility (Phase 2) will be constructed on Field One, the eastern-most of the four 100-yard practice fields.
The current Murphy Athletic Complex last underwent additions in 2003, when a locker room and theater-style meeting rooms were added to the complex.
The Football Weightroom Fundraising campaign is being headed by former Shelby County Mayor Bill Morris. Allie Prescott and Scott Forman are also serving on the committee.
