2013 Division II Women's Elite 8 Interactive Bracket
Bill Greehey Arena
The 135,000-square-foot center has a 3,800-seat capacity (no bleacher seats) and a hospitality suite overlooking the arena.
The Bill Greehey Arena was the first NCAA, Division II facility in the country to have video board capability. Two single-faced video boards are located on opposite corners to maximize viewability from anywhere in the arena. The 8'2" x 10'8", 15.8 MM LED boards provide a more dramatic and unique touch to all events. The LED boards connect to a four sided 6'xlO' scoreboard to create a more engaging and exciting facility.
Its name is in recognition of the largest capital gift of $3.1 million made by the St. Mary's Alumni Association, as well as the dedicated leadership, commitment and personal contributions of capital campaign chairman Bill Greehey, honored in naming the arena. Greehey, a distinguished alumnus of St. Mary's (B.B.A. '60), is chairman of San Antonio-based NuStar Energy.
