McCann Center at Marist College
- Athletic Director Tim Murray Shows New Floor
Poughkeepsie, NY – Dumont Flooring, in conjunction with Miller Flooring, is proud to announce the completion of the McCann Center at Marist College. The 34-year old facility was retrofit with a ScissorLocTM II subfloor system by Aacer Flooring, complete with the PowerVentTM airflow to ensure environmental control below the Northern hard rock maple surface.
The 150,000 square foot James J. McCann Recreation Center features a field house, a natatorium, two racquetball courts, a 2,200-square-foot dance studio, five locker rooms, a classroom, a sports medicine facility, and a Hall of Fame multimedia meeting room. Described by many college basketball experts as one of the loudest arenas in NCAA® Division 1 sports, the McCann Center houses more than just basketball. Marist has a dynamic sports portfolio, and won the last five MAAC Commissioner’s Cups. The most notorious of their teams, however, is the defending six-time Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference (MAAC) champion women’s basketball team, who along with the men’s team, will take to their new Aacer floor when practices begin for the Red Foxes in October for the 2011-12 basketball season.
Dumont Flooring , based in Dumont, New Jersey, is an up-and-coming sports flooring contractor in New York and New Jersey. Despite being relatively new, Dumont’s President and CEO, Jared Mathusek, has a lengthy history in the industry. His relationship with Miller Flooring led to a partnership for the installation, an easy choice considering the more than 1.8 million square feet of ScissorLocTM installed by Miller Flooring http://www.millerflooring.com/commercial/index.htm in Pennsylvania, Maryland, Delaware, and New Jersey.
