Competitive runs by the college football, baseball, and basketball teams have led to a renewed sense of investment in Green Wave athletics.

As they continue to build the indoor practice bubble ahead of fall camp for the Tulane football team, the program has made several small but impactful upgrades to several facilities.

In the 2024-25 academic year, the Green Wave renovated the James W. Wilson Center atrium, made new golf hitting facilities and a baseball wet locker room, and debuted the Libby and Robert Alexander Community Sailing Center.

In addition, Tulane Athletics announced several enhancements across the various sports programs that are currently in progress.

Yulman Stadium, which houses the football team, has made improvements under a fan-focused lens.

The Green Wave football team has already announced several home night games for the 2025 schedule.
