‘Continuity’ Key as Loyola Athletics Prepares for 2020s

Back in 2010, Loyola was a member of the Horizon League. The men’s volleyball team still played games in Alumni Gym. The Norville Center for Intercollegiate Athletics wouldn’t be completed until March 2011.

Ten years later, that seems almost like a different world.

Alumni Gym was torn down in 2011 to make room for the Damen Student Center. The university unveiled a new practice facility in August 2019 — a project that was talked about “for a long time.” But arguably the biggest move of the decade came in 2013 when Loyola left the Horizon League to join the Missouri Valley Conference (MVC).
