Bexar County commissioners have approved a $5 million investment into the construction of a new sports facility at UTSA that will be accessible to residents. The facility, known as the “Roadrunner NEST,” which stands for “Nurturing Elite Sports Talent,” will be built on the main campus starting in January 2025. With a total cost of $35 million, the facility is expected to be completed by December 2026, with the City of San Antonio also investing an equal amount.
County Commissioner Grant Moody emphasized that the Roadrunner NEST will not only benefit UTSA but will be a valuable asset for the entire community. The facility will be available for public use, hosting competitive events and youth sports, in addition to serving as the home for men’s and women’s basketball and women’s volleyball teams at the university. UTSA has committed to covering the facility’s annual operating costs of $500,000 once it is completed.
UTSA has around half of its students coming from Bexar County, and the Roadrunner NEST is expected to be a hub for sports and athletics in the area. The joint investment by the county and city reflects a commitment to providing opportunities for the community to engage in sports and recreation activities. With its state-of-the-art facilities and top-notch coaching staff, UTSA is poised to become one of the top athletic programs in Texas and beyond.
