Davis Gym

Davis Gym is an indoor athletics facility on the campus of Bucknell University in Lewisburg, Pennsylvania. It is currently home to Bucknell Bison volleyball and wrestling. It was the primary venue for basketball and other indoor sports until the Sojka Pavilion opened in 2003.[1] It hosted the Patriot League men's basketball tournament title game in 1993.[2] Following renovations in the 1990s to add reserved seats, Davis Gym's listed capacity was 2,500, though on occasion standing room crowds exceeded that.[1]

Davis Gym is named for John Warren Davis, a Bucknell alumnus and former board member. It was dedicated in his honor in 1938.[1]
