Joy Hulbert Outdoor Tennis Courts
The six lighted Joy Hulbert tennis courts were built in 1999, using the same hardcourt surface used at the U.S. Open Complex in New York. Rose-Hulman also has access to the local Wabash Valley Tennis Center which features six indoor courts. The lighted outdoor facility is named for Joy Hulbert, Rose-Hulman’s first lady for 28 years, a dedicated supporter of the institution and its students, and a fierce competitor at tennis.
