1. Penn State Behrend has two Athletic
Training Facilities located on campus. For all indoor events (Volleyball,
Basketball, Swimming and Water Polo), the Athletic Training Room can be
found in the lower level of the Junker Center. For all outdoor
activities (tennis, baseball, softball, cross country and soccer), visiting
teams should report to the Erie Hall Training room. There are visiting
