Particpants can be dropped off at Hillside Road across from the Gampel Pavilion to walk to McHugh Hall.

Safety: McHugh Hall is located at the center of the pedestrian zone of the Storrs UConn campus. The Division of Public Safety can be found here. Coaches need to ensure students are chaperoned at any time they are outside of the testing room.
