C.V. Lloyde Audiovisual Project Profile - Purdue University Mackey Arena 2023
“We've heard nothing but good things from those who are in the upper bowl, lower bowl, and even on the court. We've had problems in the past but not this season...There's a science to this and I think C. V. Lloyde Audiovisual knows what they're doing.”
