(2-28-26) There are many old-time gyms that share the history of high school basketball. Many over the years have been torn down, but those remaining hold a special place for basketball fans.

Not many theater/stage type gyms remain…but one that is special….Delphos (Ohio) Jefferson.

The Stage is half basketball court, half auditorium. It is located as part of the Delphos Jefferson Middle School, but houses the Jefferson High School basketball, volleyball and wrestling teams.

Celina (Ohio) Fieldhouse

With a new building project going on at Celina, the Fieldhouse is in limbo if it will remain as the home of the Bulldogs, or used as a secondary gym or be demolished.

Thanks to the movie HOOSIERS this gym is a showcase…numerous games are played each year to get the experience. The gym is located in Knightstown, Indiana.

Celina (Ohio) High School Gym

The current gym is located in the soon to be demolished Celina High School…that includes the gym.

The gym has been used for a little bit of everything…it is now the home of the Bulldog wrestling teams.

In the past it hosted Celina Immaculate Conception boys basketball team. Most notably it was the home court in 1991 for the State girls basketball championship team.
