As part of Sam Houston State University’s 10-year master plan centered on the creation of state-of-the-art facilities, the university broke ground on a new tennis complex in a special ceremony on Sept. 28. The ceremony featured representatives from the City of Huntsville and Walker County, as well as Chuck and Wanda Beckner, the namesakes of the future complex.
The Beckners are both avid Bearkat tennis fans and have a deep-rooted passion for the sport.
Attendees were excited to gain a first look at renderings for the upcoming facility, which will be located at 515 Bowers Blvd., across from the Don Sanders Baseball field.
