The View from Concordia University Texas! Come Get Involved in Tornado Season!
The entrance to Concordia University Texas
On May 13, 2005, the Concordia University Texas Board of Regents took a visionary step of faith in deciding to relocate the University’s main campus. In March 2007, Concordia purchased the Austin Hill Country Reserve as the new University site. Concordia embarked on a massive relocation plan during the summer of 2008 and moved the entire campus from Downtown Austin to the new picturesque site in Northwest Austin off of 620 and 2222. This is a unique and exciting time in Concordia’s history and the new campus consists of six buildings totaling 195,000 square feet and 389 acres, with 250 acres of that total devoted to a nature preserve, now named the Concordia Preserve. This is the perfect new home for Concordia!

The View in the Field House
The Concordia University Texas Fieldhouse provides a first-class collegiate experience for the University’s NCAA Division III student-athletes and Tornados fans. The facility has a Robbins bio-cushion flooring system with portable hydraulic basketball goals. Tornados fans don’t have to miss a minute of the action with available views of the floor from the second level, where the concession stand, restrooms and hospitality room are located. The Field house can hold up to 1,600 Tornado fans and has the capabilities to host special events. Local media, which often cover Tornados events, have easy access to the gym floor and plenty of room on the baselines, as well as free wireless Internet services through the campus. The Field House also includes a state-of-the art sound system.
Concordia Athletic Training
The athletic training facility at Concordia University Texas is located in the Field House. It not only meets the needs of our 200 student-athletes, but is also available to students enrolled in the Concordia Athletic Training Program. The facility includes areas for treatment, taping, rehabilitation and an enclosed wet-room. Built in 2008 and just shy of 1,000 square feet, the athletic training room features three adjustable tables, three taping tables, a multitude of rehabilitation equipment and extra space for additional treatment tables if needed. Modalities available to student-athletes include e-stim, ultrasound, gameready, heat and ice treatments, as well as hot and cold whirlpools. The facility is open throughout the day to our student-athletes for treatment and rehabilitation in an effort to keep them healthy and participating in their chosen sports.
The Future of Concordia University Texas Baseball
Currently, the University is focusing on raising the funds to finish the development of the Concordia Baseball Field. Located on one of the most picturesque sites in Central Texas, the future field will be a site for the University and the local community to treasure for many years to come. Located on one of the highest points in Northwest Austin, Tornado baseball fans will have an amazing view of the Concordia Preserve from any seat in the house.
