On January 24, the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley opened its Vaqueros Golf Center.
The facility cost $3 million and was built at Champion Lakes Golf Course in McAllen, Texas. The Vaqueros Golf Center includes more than 4,200 square feet of space for locker rooms for the men’s and women’s golf programs, two hitting bays, a study lounge, nutrition station and viewing area, and coaches’ offices.
The Vaqueros Golf Center is a direct result of the partnership between UTRGV Athletics and the City of McAllen.
“What a transformative day for UTRGV Golf,” said head men’s golf coach Houston Moore. “It’s a big day for us. We’re really excited about what this facility has to offer. It’s a tremendous step forward for our programs. We plan to utilize the facility to its full potential and, hopefully, tap into ours.”
