Strahan's Coliseum Stage before 2018 renovation

On September 15, 2008, the Houston Comets and the Sacramento Monarchs of the WNBA came to play in the Coliseum due to Hurricane Ike cancelling the final home game of the regular season for the Houston Comets. The Comets defeated Sacramento 90–81. This would end up being the last game the Comets ever played; they folded after the season ended.

The arena was previously known as Strahan Coliseum, but changed its name to the University Events Center as part of a late 2018 expansion.[3]
