Abstract
University of Dayton Arena was scheduled to be ready for March Madness on March 15, 2020. But COVID-19 changed that. By that evening, a flurry of text messages to UD Arena Executive Director Scott DeBolt set into motion a transformation of UD Arena unlike any in its history. By March 17, 2020, the day the NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament should have tipped in Dayton, the arena became southwest Ohio's first mass public COVID-19 testing site.
