The Hart Center

Holy Cross plays all of its home games on campus at the Hart Center.

The Hart Recreation Center is one of the premier athletic facilities in the Northeast. The facility is named for Rev. Francis J. Hart, S.J., the guiding force behind intramurals at the college for more than 40 years.

Located atop Mount St. James, the Hart Center contains a 3,600-capacity basketball arena, a six-lane swimming pool with separate diving area, a 1,400-capacity hockey and ice skating arena, rowing tanks, and racquetball and squash courts.

Behind the Hart Center is a full size track, four practice fields, soccer field and a lighted turf field which services numerous sports and intramural programs.
