The Gilliam Indoor Track Stadium opened for the first time in December of 2008, and features a number of technological advancements that are relatively new to the collegiate athletic scene. The top-of-the-line facility is fully air-conditioned and equipped with high quality climate control systems. In addition to the six-lane, 200-meter hydraulically banked competition track, the facility features eight independent sprint lanes, two long and triple jump sand pits, four pole vault runways, and two throwing rings.
The surface of the track is constructed with Mondo Super X Performance Material, a synthetic rubber that provides high-quality shock absorption, skid resistance, force reduction, and overall comfort for the athletes as they practice and compete. The six-lane, 200-meter competition track installed in the facility also has the capability to be hydraulically banked at its two bends for high speed running events. This technology has the potential to make Texas A&M the fastest indoor track in North America. The hydraulic track can be adjusted to any interval, perfect for a variety of training purposes and levels of competition.
Gilliam Indoor Track Stadium features a pre-engineered bleacher system with press boxes and portable grandstands to seat over 4,100 and is furnished with two press boxes, fully operating concessions, and restroom facilities for meets and other events.
