The Bearcat women’s team will move to St. Ursula, a nearby high school, for practices and games while the Fifth Third Arena on UC’s campus is renovated. The men’s team will play in the much-larger Northern Kentucky University BB&T Arena.

The linked article has more info about the issues that led to this decision.
http://www.cincinnati.com/story/news/2017/04/04/fair-uc-womens-basketball-volleyball-teams-play-st-ursula/98805914/ It states scheduling was difficult, and no one seems to have suggested a better locale. Particularly disconcerting is the fact that the coach wasn't involved with this decision at all.
