ANN ARBOR, Mich. (AP) - The University of Michigan Board of Regents has approved plans for a $168 million multi-use facility for track, tennis, cross country, rowing, soccer and lacrosse.

The board made the decision Thursday at its meeting in Ann Arbor.

The Athletics South Competition and Performance Project will have about 310,000 square feet for what are generally known as Olympic sports. The university says about two-thirds of its student athletes will use the new facility.



The money comes in part from a previously announced gift from real estate entrepreneur Stephen M. Ross.

The site is along South State St. on the Stephen M. Ross Athletic Campus.
