I would disagree with that. I don't particularly care for SV's gym. To me, it was very poorly designed. The only way to access the upper arena is from 4 corner stairwells, and that's it. Plus, they had to remove a lot of seats from each side to put in fire escapes (which were not in the original version of the building). I also think that it was built with too small a capacity, but that usually isn't an issue until district rolls around.

I remember the atmosphere at the old Virgie gym was amazing, and even when SV played there the first few years it still drew packed houses with loud fans. Once they moved over to the new facility, something was lost in the process.

For a program that prides itself on being a "basketball school", they deserve a much better arena. The really weird part is SV has one of the nicer football fields around. Yet the basketball arena is not even the best in Pike County (that would be Pike Central).

I guess we'll agree to disagree. I think that SV has one of the nicest gyms. Nice seats, big capacity when the upper arena is open, good floor, and atmosphere.

I think Pike Central is one of the worst gyms in the Region, so I guess it is all just a matter of opinion. :p
