O'Connor Company Completes State-of-the-Art Athletic Complex for UNC Pembroke
New multi-building outdoor sports facility enhances recreation, competition, and community engagement on campusPembroke, NC - June 18, 2025 - O'Connor Company [https://www.buildoconnor.com/], a leading name in commercial construction specializing in delivering high-quality projects across diverse sectors, has completed construction of the Campus Rec Baseball/Softball Outdoor Complex at the University of North Carolina at Pembroke (UNCP). The project, which reached substantial completion on April 15, 2025, delivers a transformative upgrade to the university's athletic and recreational infrastructure.
The new complex includes nearly 10,000 square feet of indoor facility space across three buildings, including two custom-designed indoor hitting facilities for UNCP's baseball and softball programs and a third support building housing concessions, ticketing, and mechanical operations.
Beyond the vertical construction, the site features extensive athletic enhancements:
*
A 73,000 sq. ft. multipurpose synthetic turf field supporting a variety of sports and student activities
*
Brand-new grandstands and a centralized press box for both baseball and softball fields
*
Upgraded Musco sports lighting, new fencing and netting, and complete landscaping redesign

"We're proud to have delivered a space that blends functionality with impact."
Construction Approach and Project Highlights
To meet the aggressive timeline, O'Connor Company employed a phased construction strategy:
*
Utility work and turf installation came first
*
Vertical construction followed, including two pre-engineered metal buildings (PEMBs) from Chief
*
Final phases included stamped concrete walkways, pavers, and full landscaping
Despite weather challenges due to a low water table, O'Connor's site teams maintained momentum by implementing proactive water management techniques and sequencing work for maximum efficiency.
Collaboration and Community Impact
The successful delivery of the complex reflects strong collaboration between O'Connor Company, Moseley Architects, VHB Engineering, and UNCP leadership.
The new facility will serve as a central hub for:
*
Enhanced Student Wellness and Recreation: The complex introduces high-quality recreational and athletic infrastructure that will support daily student use, intramural sports, and varsity training-all within a safe, multifunctional environment.
*
Support for Student Recruitment and Retention: The facility's scale, functionality, and design reinforce UNCP's appeal to prospective students, especially those seeking a well-rounded campus experience with access to modern amenities.
*
Expanded Community Use and Economic Activation: Designed for flexibility, the space allows UNCP to host regional events and youth programs-bringing increased visibility and foot traffic to the Pembroke area.
*
Elevated Athletic Training and Performance Spaces: From indoor hitting facilities to upgraded field systems and lighting, the complex meets the performance demands of collegiate athletics and supports athlete development long-term.
