The Gym

The gym at Durant High School is one of the largest gyms in Hillsborough County.  There are 10 baskets along its inside perimeter that allow the basketball team to practice with maximum efficiency.  In addition, when both sides of the bleachers are out, the gym can seat over 2,000 people.

Durant’s gym is also one of the most attractive in the county.  The maple wood floor was recently redesigned under the direction of Jeff Shotwell.  The mid-floor logo was updated along with a unique stain pattern that sets Durant’s hardwood apart from every other floor in the county.  Mix that with our vibrant lighting system and you have one of the most inviting playing environments Hillsborough County has to offer.
