Georgia State facility projects on tracks

Georgia State athletic director Charlie Cobb said on Thursday he should know the construction start date on the strength and conditioning center for football within two weeks. It is expected to be completed by Aug. 1, the start of the fall practice.

Additionally, an RFP for the design of the basketball practice center is expected to be completed within two weeks. The next step will be agreeing to a contract with the winning bidder.

The strength and conditioning center for football will be approximately 7,000 square feet and be built adjacent to the practice facility on 188 MLK Dr. SE.

The basketball practice center will be constructed within the Aquatics Center, located next to the GSU Sports Arena.
