William H. Detrick Gymnasium is a 2,654-seat multi-purpose arena in New Britain, Connecticut. It is home to the Central Connecticut State University Blue Devils basketball team. It opened in 1965 and the first game was played on December 4th against Coast Guard.[1] In 2005 it received a new floor, the first since the facility opened its doors in 1965.[2] The Northeast Conference men's basketball tournament was held there in 1998, 2002, and 2007. The facility is named after the late Bill Detrick, who was head coach at CCSU for 29 years, compiling a school-record 468 wins.[3]
