Manley Field House

Opened: January 1, 1962

Manley Field House is a multi-purpose arena in Syracuse, New York. It is owned and operated by Syracuse University and is located on the Lampe Athletic Complex on university's South campus.

The arena opened in 1962 and had 5,400 seats. While it later was used primarily as a basketball facility, it was intended as a football practice facility when built. It was home to the Syracuse Orange men's and women's basketball teams, the indoor track team, and the women's volleyball team before the Carrier Dome opened in 1980. At one time it held 9,500 people for home games.

It is named for Dr. George L. Manley, a University trustee and graduate of the College of Medicine, who was the benefactor of the building. It was built to replace the old Archbold Gymnasium, which had served for almost 60 years prior.

After 1980 season, Syracuse basketball started playing their games in the newly constructed Carrier Dome and Manley field house was relegated to a secondary stadium status. On February 13, 1980, the Georgetown Hoyas men's basketball team defeated No. 2 Syracuse 52-50 in the final game played in Manley. After the victory, Georgetown head coach John Thompson Jr. said that "Manley Field House is officially closed". With basketball out of Manley Field House, the arena was converted into an indoor practice facility for football and men's and women's lacrosse.
