Gersten Pavilion

The Gersten Pavilion is a 3,900-seat multi-purpose arena in Los Angeles, California.It was also the part-time practice home for the Los Angeles Lakers.[2] The arena will forever be linked to the events that transpired on March 4, 1990, when LMU star Hank Gathers collapsed on the court from cardiomyopathy during a West Coast Conference men's basketball tournament game and later died.The tourney was promptly suspended and LMU was awarded the NCAA bid based on their regular season title.The arena is known among LMU alumni as "Hank's House" in honor of Gathers and the phrase "This is Hank's House" is recited before the start of every men's basketball game.
