Carter Gymnasium Totally Explained

Everything about Carter Gymnasium totally explained

Carter Gymnasium is a 947-seat multi-purpose arena in Buies Creek, North Carolina. It is home to the Campbell University Fighting Camels men's basketball and women's basketball teams. It is one of the smallest college basketball venues in Division I (the CSU Field House home to Charleston Southern University's program is the current smallest Division I men's basketball arena). The building was named for textile executive Howard Carter. Built in 1952 and opened in 1953, the dimensions of the basketball court are smaller than regulation, but a grandfather clause allows Campbell University to continue its tenure in the division.
