Welcome
On behalf of the Fighting Owls, we welcome you to our campus. We hope
you enjoy your stay at Warren Wilson. Below we have outlined some
helpful guidelines when visiting our campus.
Athletic Training
Our training room is located down stairs in DeVries Gym. Charlie
Wright is our Director of Wellness who supervises this department.
There are examination tables, taping areas and a whirlpool that will be
available for your use 90 minutes prior to competition. If you are
traveling without an athletic trainer, please supply your own medical
kit and all necessary medical information for athletes. Water, cups
and ice will be available at the visiting team bench. If you have any
questions, please call Charlie Wright at the number listed.
Filming
Warren Wilson College does not provide filming tapes at competition.
Schools will need to have an extension cord along with a camera.
Visiting Team Parking
If you are traveling by a charter bus please notify us ahead of time to
ensure a reserved spot in our parking lot. All buses will park in the
lower parking area of DeVries Gym near the tennis courts.
Important notice for charter bus drivers! Most buses
cannot make the left hand turn from Warren Wilson Road onto Chapel
drive due to the incline and divot in the road. Please pass the
entrance and take a right into the Kittredge parking lot. You can
either park in that lot and walk across the street or turn around in
the lot and proceed back to chapel drive. Buses can make the right
hand turn from this direction.
Sports Information
Post-game statistics can be made available to the coaching staff 15
minutes after the contest. Please check in with the stat's person in
order for us to get copies. Warren Wilson calls in scores to our local
media Asheville Citizen Times after each game. We do not post game
story or box scores on our webpage.
Dining
Warren Wilson College is located in Swannanoa between Asheville and
Black Mountain. There are numerous restaurants within a 10-15 minute
drive or fast food eateries near the college at exit 55. The best
suggestions to a quick and affordable meal is to head back to exit 55
on highway 70 and stay straight on Tunnel road. You pass Zaxby's,
Arby's, Bojangles, Cocula's (Mexican) and Subway. If you proceed down
Hwy 70 past the mall and towards downtown there is the East Asian
Buffet, Red Lobster, Hooters.
