Blinn College District is preparing to start construction in November on a $43.465 million sports complex at its Brenham campus.

Trustees voted Sept. 15 to authorize negotiations with Bartlett Cocke General Contractors on a guaranteed maximum price, along with site-development agreements and requests for proposals for equipment and furnishings. Blinn says the project remains within its overall budget and is expected to reach substantial completion in summer 2028.

Plans call for football practice space, an eight-lane track, soccer and softball competition fields, and a 28,500-square-foot fieldhouse with offices, locker rooms and training facilities. About 250 parking spaces and access improvements are also planned.

The project is in Brenham. Blinn also serves Bryan-College Station through its Bryan campus and its partnership with the Texas A&M University System at RELLIS.
