Arena #103: Trojan Arena - Troy vs. Georgia Southern

Third game in a third state in three days brought us to Troy, AL for a Sun Belt conference opener between the Troy Trojans and the Georgia Southern Eagles.  Troy, AL isn't exactly a large town, but the campus of the university is pretty impressive.  It's obvious that it's definitely not cheap to be a student here when you see all the buildings on campus, including the Trojan Arena.  What a perfect sized arena for a mid-major team (capacity was around 5,000) and even though it wasn't nearly full on this evening, it didn't feel barren either like many games we end up at during the week after Christmas.

Impressive southern architecture - wouldn't even know it was a sports arena
