SPEED FAB-CRETE PERFORMING AS DESIGN-BUILDER FOR EVERMAN ISD FIELD HOUSE
Construction is underway for the new $5,275,000 Dale Keeling Field House for Everman Independent School District as part of multiple projects being performed by Speed Fab-Crete, a design-builder.
The 24,100-square-foot complex will contain athletic facilities for the school district's 9th grade, junior varsity and varsity football teams. Completion is planned for spring of 2009.
The building is named in honor of Dale Keeling, the district's current Director of Athletics and head football coach, which he has held for 10 years. Keeling garnered two Class 3A state football championships in 2001 and 2002. Last year, Everman was champion of its Class 4A district and played in the state's semi-finals.
Callahan & Freeman Architects designed the angular shaped facility. Architect Charles Freeman said the unusual shape of the building maximizes available space on the project site, which is in an end zone of the football field. Multiple windows of spacious coaches' offices and player weight room face out onto a curved track bordering the field.
