Notes: The John A. Lally Athletics Complex is the center for student-athletic life for Syracuse University sports teams. The complex serves more than six hundred student-athletes across twenty teams. In 2022 the University began a multi-year, multi-phase project to transform Manley Field House and the Lampe Athletic Complex into the John A. Lally Athletics Complex.
On February 17, 2023, a ribbon ceremony was held to mark the opening of the new entranceway, which includes a welcome lobby, new meeting areas and office space. The project also included renovation to existing spaces within the Roy D. Simmons. Sr. Coaches Center.
