Campaign for Excellence 

Towson University Athletics has announced the launch of to fuel high-impact improvements for two key athletic facilities: the field house and the Towson Center.

鈥淭he seeds for this project were planted a long time ago, but we were able to grow it from adding offices and meeting space to totally overhauling our ability to care for and develop our student-athletes, both physically and academically,鈥� says Steven Eigenbrot, director of athletics. 鈥淕rowth like that only happens with tremendous support and vision from our leadership.鈥濃�ㄢ�ㄢ��

Phase one will include: expanded team meeting spaces, program-specific suites, enhancements to the Dr. Francis S. Soistman Jr. 鈥�79, 鈥�15 (hon.) and Family Athletics Academic Achievement Center and the athletic training room and a new Fueling Zone to better meet the dietary needs of student-athletes.

Phase One will tackle a field house expansion and renovation as well as the Towson Center athletic training and weight rooms鈥� renovation. The improvements include renovating more than 17,000 square feet of the existing 53,000 square feet of Unitas Stadium鈥檚 Field House and adding 12,600 square feet to the building.

The second phase is focused on the Towson Center gymnasium, adding 15,000 square feet of indoor turf space and two practice courts for volleyball and basketball.

The addition will expand team meeting spaces, establish program-specific suites with meeting rooms and provide important enhancements to the Dr. Francis S. Soistman Jr. 鈥�79, 鈥�15 (hon.) and Family Athletics Academic Achievement Center. The renovation will also include the athletic training room and a new Fueling Zone to better meet the dietary needs of student-athletes before, during and after training sessions and competitions.

The Towson Center renovations will focus on connecting and improving the weight rooms and other sport performance areas within the facility by establishing a new sport performance center. Field house construction is estimated to take 18 months and could begin as early as summer 2025 with work in the Towson Center to follow closely behind. 

With state-of-the-art equipment and ample space, our student-athletes will be able to focus on building strength, speed and agility in a way that wasn鈥檛 possible before.
