In this Nov. 16, 2015 photo provided by The George Washington University, George Washington plays Virginia in front of a sold out crowd at an NCAA college basketball game at the Charles E. Smith Center in Washington, DC. College basketball floors once had simple designs, the only flair usually the addition of color in the lane or at midcourt. Court designs have taken a creative twist over the past few years with schools adding elaborate detail. (The George Washington University via AP) **FILE**
