The design and construction team delivered a $33.3-million facility that is dedicated to student-athletic training, wellness, academic excellence, campus spirit and recruitment at the University of Texas at San Antonio. The two-story facility consists of all-sport team spaces, including locker rooms, an equipment room, a sports medicine area, offices for coaches, team meeting rooms, a weight room, athletic administration offices and academic spaces. The front foyer also features a lobby with a hall of fame for alumni.
Among the challenges initiated by the COVID-19 pandemic, reviewing material samples proved particularly difficult. Sample parties didn’t work over Zoom calls, so the team had to mail samples to various stakeholders. This made creating consensus and getting approvals difficult to achieve in a timely fashion.
