Best known as the home of the Utah State Aggies men's and the women's basketball teams, it also hosts gymnastics, volleyball, and other sporting events.

Originally known as the Assembly Center, the arena's first basketball game was 55 years ago on December 1, 1970, a 95–89 victory over Ohio State.

In those games, USU amassed a dominating record of 398 wins and 102 losses versus its competition.

In that same time period, the Aggies were 119–20 (.856) against league opponents and 125–12 (.912) in non-conference games at home.
