We are proud of the outstanding William Welch Track and Field Complex, located at Cook Stadium. The $1-million, state-of-the-art complex features a Martin ISS 1000 surface, used in the Olympic Games and NCAA championships at all levels. It has the bleacher seating of Cook Stadium along with other stadium features. It is home to the Fightin’ Engineers Track and Field and Cross Country teams. The complex is named for former coach Bill Welch, whose 22-year career at Rose-Hulman brought glory to many of his athletes. He was named to the Rose-Hulman Athletic Hall of Fame in 1997.

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.

The Multi-Purpose Room is the most reserved room in the Sports and Recreation Center. With seating for 100 spectators the room is used for a variety of activities, including exercise classes, clubs, meetings, Hall of Fame Induction Ceremonies, and many other events. It is conveniently located adjacent to the indoor track, weight room and the cardio room.

Rose-Hulman's intramural fields are heavily used by students, with nearly 75 percent of all students participating in at least one intramural activity. The fields are also used for varsity practices, home soccer matches, flag football, a sno-ball softball tournament, ultimate Frisbee, and 3-pitch softball. The fields include bleacher seating and are conveniently located just east of the Joy Hulbert tennis courts. 

The SRC weight room features Hammer Strength and Magnum exercise equipment that can be used by everyone from beginners to advanced weight lifters. The adjacent cardio room features the latest cardio equipment, television screens, sound systems and more. Both rooms are supervised while the SRC is open and staff are available by appointment to explain how to use the equipment.
