Mike Carter Athletic Center

Tulsa, Oklahoma

The Cornerstone for Athletics

After years of success leading to an appearance at the NCAA sweet-sixteen basketball tournament, Oral Robert’s University received funds to create a dream training facility for its men’s and women’s basketball programs. Branded in recognition of longtime athletic director Mike Carter, the three-story athletic center will include two basketball courts, a strength-and-conditioning facility, an ORU Hall of Fame museum presentation, and offices for all basketball and athletic department personnel.

A new Eli Academic Center will have open study space as well as individual and group study rooms and a team room large enough for 100 people. In addition, two NCAA-regulated basketball courts are being built for the men's and women's basketball teams, allowing multiple teams to train at the same time.
