Designed by the Eggers Group of New York City, the Pizzitola Sports Center provides an intercollegiate competition court for men's and women's basketball, volleyball, wrestling and gymnastics with bleacher and balcony seating for 2,800. The main floor of the center is named the Williams Court for Howard Williams '17, former football player, track athlete and assistant football coach. A sliding divider on the main floor gives the facility flexibility for practice sessions.

The building is also home to the Kate Brodsky Memorial Squash Pavilion and its five state-of-the-art squash courts, providing seating for up to 200 spectators. The Pizzitola Center also has separate practice space for wrestling and gymnastics. In addition, four tennis courts are housed under a fabric roof, which is made of teflon-coated fiberglass, a translucent material.

The Paul Bailey Pizzitola Memorial Sports Center was officially dedicated in April, 1989, in memory of Paul Bailey Pizzitola '81.
