Maverick athletes are now honing their volleyball and basketball skills on the Carrizo Oil & Gas College Park Center Practice Facility. The University named the area—which features two regulation basketball courts—for the Houston-based energy company to recognize the firm’s $5 million commitment to College Park Center. The 7,000-seat events venue opened in February 2012 and anchors UT Arlington’s College Park District, a 20-acre residential and retail development. Carrizo, which initially developed the University’s natural gas resources, also donated $1 million to establish a graduate research fellowship and $1.12 million for construction of the YWCA Arlington Child Development Center on campus.
