SAN ANTONIO, TX — Skanska joined The University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA) in celebrating the completion of the new Basketball & Volleyball Training Center (BVTC), a $35 million, approximately 52,000-square-foot basketball and volleyball training facility located on the university's main campus.
Located adjacent to the Roadrunner Athletics Center of Excellence, the two-story facility serves as the daily home for UTSA's men's and women's basketball and volleyball programs. The BVTC features two full-sized NCAA practice courts, dedicated locker rooms with showers, film review rooms, team lounges, coaches' offices, and team meeting spaces. Shared amenities include a weight room, hydrotherapy and sports medicine space, and equipment and laundry facilities.
The facility represents a significant investment in the future of Roadrunner Athletics, supporting student-athlete performance, recruitment, and long-term program growth.
"UTSA continues to make meaningful investments in its students, campus, and athletics programs," said Matt McCaffrey, Vice President and Account Manager with Skanska USA Building San Antonio. "We are proud to have partnered with UTSA to deliver a facility that strengthens the student-athlete experience and supports the continued growth of Roadrunner Athletics."
Construction took place on an active campus adjacent to existing athletic facilities, requiring careful coordination to maintain access and minimize disruption to students, student-athletes, and university operations throughout the project.

The BVTC is expected to play a key role in the student-athlete’s collegiate career.
"The Basketball & Volleyball Training Center is a difference-maker for our basketball and volleyball student-athletes, who now have 24-hour access to practice courts in addition to state-of-the-art locker rooms, team lounges, and strength & conditioning facilities," said Lisa Campos, UTSA Vice President for Intercollegiate Athletics. "I want to thank Skanska, Populous, [UTSA President] Dr. [Tylor] Eighmy, the City of San Antonio, Bexar County, and the many donors who have come together to support making this facility a reality."
The BVTC broke ground in December 2024 and was designed by Populous. The project was made possible through a collaborative investment that included support from UTSA, the City of San Antonio, and Bexar County.
