About DeNunzio Pool: DeNunzio Pool was constructed in 1990 with state-of-the-art design and technology, making it among the fastest pools in the nation. The facility is located east of Jadwin Gymnasium. The pool measures 50 meters by 25 yards with a minimum depth of nine feet and a maximum depth of 17 feet. The pool has two movable bulkheads which allow for various course configurations for swimming and water polo. The facility features a fully automatic Colorado timing system with electronic scoring for diving and water polo. The pool building includes complete facilities for diving (one and three meter springboards as well as a 10-meter platform with intermediate towers.)

There are bleachers to accommodate 1,700 spectators, men’s and women’s locker rooms, an exercise room, offices, and a conference room in the building. The building and pool are ADA accessible. Caldwell Fieldhouse connects to DeNunzio Pool at deck level and houses additional locker rooms for visiting teams and an athletic training room as well as a connecting tunnel to Jadwin.
