The R Big Build got a little bigger yesterday.
At its monthly meeting, the Rutgers Board of Governors gave final approval to two major projects (we’ll touch base on the second below), including the construction of the new practice and training facility for basketball, gymnastics, and wrestling.
The R B1G Build was launched about 14 months ago with the goal of raising $100 million for the construction of the now-named RWJBarnabas Health Athletic Performance Center, a new training facility for soccer, lacrosse, and tennis, along with conversion of the Hale Center into a football only facility.
