Cadet Indoor Track
Heritage Minute (Indoor Track Mural) | Heritage Minute (Cadet Field House)
The Cadet Field House is considered one of the top athletic facilities in the country. This multi–purpose facility, built in 1968, houses the indoor track, basketball arena, and ice hockey rink for intercollegiate sports. The indoor track area, which can seat 1,000 fans in an elevated seating area, is at the second-highest elevation of any track in the nation.
The track is a full-pour polyurethane surface of 268-meters (six laps/mile), with eight lanes on the straightaway and six lanes on the oval. Inside the oval is a FieldTurf surface that includes polyurethane runways for the pole vault, horizontal and high jumps, along with a throwing cage. The field house is equipped with a full-size Daktronics scoreboard and message center along with event-specific AAE field event scoreboards, and a FinishLynx computerized timing system.
In July 1997, the Academy’s Class of 1976 commissioned regional artist Michael Esch to paint an eight panel canvas representing the life of an Academy cadet over four years. Each canvas is a 40-foot by 40- foot panel, painted in acrylic enamel that portrays the realism of Academy life since 1976. The panels hang on the north wall of the Field House indoor track and are a gift to the Athletic Department.
