The Champions Center serves as the nucleus of every student-athlete's time at WSU. From one-on-one tutoring sessions in the academic center, professional development workshops, or privately visiting a counselor about their mental health, they will find it in the Champions Center. Previously, our staff and resources were spread across two buildings (Bohler Athletic Complex and Physical Education Building). A renovated Champions Center centralizes the staff into one building as well as open up the academic, mental, and professional development space. The facility addresses the holistic wellbeing of each and every one of our 450+ student-athletes with:
- Academic resources
- Mental health services
- Professional development
In January 2023, the Board of Regents voted to move forward with the design phase of the project. On Nov. 4, 2023, a Champions Center Celebration event took place at the Bohler Athletic Complex Galleria on the WSU campus. The event can be viewed on the WSU Athletics YouTube channel. The Champions Center Grand Opening Celebration took place, Feb. 19, 2025.
The cost of the facility is covered entirely by philanthropic support.
