About

The “Rec” is some students’ first stop in the morning, or at least planned out as a stop each week, and who can’t see why? Pohl offers a climbing wall, indoor and outdoor volleyball and basketball courts, an indoor soccer court, a pool and, of course, lots of work-out equipment fit to suit any need. There is even a 1/8 mile track above the main floor to get some cardio in. And don’t miss out on the chance to join Outdoor Pursuits for a backpacking or camping trip, as well as the many free clinics they provide to prepare for the outdoors.
