May 16, 2008
FORT WORTH, Texas -- TCU's Sam Baugh Indoor Practice Facility earned the Linbeck Group a 2008 AGC/Quoin Summit Merit Award sponsored by the Association of General Contractors. A longtime partner with TCU, Linbeck received the honor for developing the project to TCU's satisfaction and recruiting needs while overcoming the adversity of several weather-related obstacles. The Sam Baugh Indoor Practice Facility was completed on schedule despite incurring 42 days of downtime from the wettest year on record in Fort Worth. A high wind storm also caused the facility to lose its entire roof structure after it was 50 percent complete. "We are very appreciative of our outstanding relationship with the Linbeck Group and congratulate them on this well-deserved honor," TCU associate athletics director Ross Bailey said. "The Sam Baugh Indoor Practice Facility is first class in every regard and is the result of a great team effort." The AGC/Quoin Summit Merit Award recognizes work completed in the calendar year and in various cost categories. The 80,000 square-foot Sam Baugh Indoor Practice Facility was a $7 million project.
