COLLEGE PARK, Md. — The storied Cole Field House at the University of Maryland has been completely transformed from an iconic basketball arena into a cavernous new football practice facility.
University and state leaders celebrated the opening of the full-sized turf football field Wednesday as work begins on other pieces of the project, such as the football team’s new locker room and new medical research and athletic treatment facilities that are set to include a significant focus on concussions and other brain injuries often associated with football.
