Completed in 2007, the arena is home court for the Chicago State University Cougars men's and women's basketball teams.

[2] The arena replaced the Dickens Athletic Center, which only had capacity to seat 2,500 persons.

[3][4] The convocation center is unique among Illinois university athletic projects, as Chicago State University itself did not need to raise any money for the project; the money was allocated from the State of Illinois Treasury by then-Senate President Emil Jones.

[citation needed] The venue hosted the 2012 and 2013 Great West Conference men's basketball tournaments.
