Texas Southern University Opens State-Of-The-Art Athletic Facility

The 6,600-square-foot venue features new state-of-the-art weights and weight machines costing $3.5 million

A Texas HBCU recently cut the ribbon after opening a new athletic facility featuring the latest state-of-the-art equipment.

The Texas Southern University (TSU) Department of Athletics just announced the ribbon-cutting for its new athletic strength and conditioning facility. The 6,600-square-foot venue features new state-of-the-art weights and weight machines, offices for strength and conditioning staff, as well as more space for physical therapy and other services that student-athletes will have access to.

“It gives us the opportunity to compete with anybody,” said Vice President for Intercollegiate Athletics Dr. Kevin Granger in a written statement.

“One of the things that these new student-athletes are checking out is your facilities. So, when you don’t have top-notch facilities, a lot of times they’re not going to come to your school. Now when we have recruits visit our campus, we can bring them into facilities that will match up with anybody’s in the state.”
