In 2005, the building was renamed the Hynes Center, after being formerly known as the John A. Mulcahy Campus Events Center.

Between the summer and fall of 2019, Hynes Athletics Center received a total of $6.5 million to expand and modernize the athletic center. The athletic center's renovations were completed in October 2019.[3][4][5][6]
