Well, look at you-you’ve made it to the big finale, the Woodsboro Bank Arena! Take a good look at this modern sports palace. Picture the thump of basketballs, the shrill of sneakers on polished wood, and cheers bouncing off the seats-yes, all 1,600 of them, with room for 500 more on the floor if there’s a serious game-night crowd. You’re standing where college basketball dreams and volleyball victories play out on Hood College’s campus. Since 2011, after some serious building magic by Warner Construction and Zavos Architecture, this arena has been the stomping ground for Hood’s basketball and volleyball teams. And, if you hear a wild moo, don’t worry-it’s just the Frederick Flying Cows, the hometown pros from The Basketball League. No joke-they really are called the Flying Cows!
Originally, people called this place BB&T Arena, but in April 2024, they decided the arena needed a new jersey. Thanks to a five-year partnership, it’s now the Woodsboro Bank Arena-new name, same electrifying energy. You can almost feel the anticipation of a close game or the nerves of a final serve. Just imagine the floodlights, the smell of popcorn, and the sound of whistles as fans ride the roller coaster of every point and play. Quite a transformation for what started as just a plot of land not so long ago! Soak it in-you’re standing where sports legends of Frederick are made.
