Koessler Athletic Center Pool – Canisius University

The Koessler Athletic Center Pool is a 25-yard, six-lane pool and hosts meets for the men and women’s swimming and diving teams as well as competitions for the synchronized swimming program.

Installed for the start of the 2005-06 season was a new scoreboard that shows the running time throughout an event. Each time a swimmer hits the touch pad at the end of the lane, the split time for that swimmer is displayed in his or her respective lane on the scoreboard. At the end of the race, final times are posted on the board until the start of the next event. The scoreboard also shows point totals for the meet for both the men and women’s teams. Recording the times in the pool are touchpads located underneath the starting blocks. These touchpads are tied into the scoreboard console, which relays the times to be displayed on the scoreboard. During the fall of 2009, brand new lights were installed in the facility, providing a better experience for swimmers and fans.
