History
The first game played in Fant-Ewing was on December 1, 1971 against Sam Houston State, who defeated ULM 71-70.
It has hosted the Southland Conference men's basketball tournament five times and the Atlantic Sun Conference men's basketball tournament three times.
During the 2006-07 season, a student only section was created. Deemed the "Hawk's Nest", this section energized Fant-Ewing and the players.
