ATHLETIC ENHANCEMENTS
Student athletes benefit from exciting improvements thanks to the vision and generous support of several BA families.
BASEBALL FIELD/TURF
“The installation of turf this year allowed us to be able to practice and play games when few other schools could. The decreased amount of time that the coaches and players had to spend on field maintenance was also a blessing. It allowed everyone to get home 30-45 minutes earlier than in previous years.” - Coach Michael Brown
“I like how the turf is a lot truer than a dirt infield. I also like how smoothly I am able to slide without tearing my knees and elbows up.” - Will Rooney ‘26
SOCCER LIGHTS
“We are incredibly excited to add lights to our soccer field. The lights will allow us to host games on our own field at the end of the middle school season and at the start of the boys’ varsity season that we would otherwise have to play somewhere else. We already play on one of the best fields in the state of Tennessee, and the addition of lights will only solidify that status. The players are thrilled as well to be able to play games under the lights!” - Coach Phil Masters ‘06
BOYS LOCKER ROOM
“We are thankful to the generous BA alums, parents, former parents, and friends of the program who helped us complete a $300,000 renovation to the 20-year-old locker room. The ‘facelift’ consists of 104 new lockers, a wall dedicated to the BA professional players, a memory wall dedicated to the history of BA football and BA logos throughout the room. We also added recent photos and new carpet to round out the project.” - Coach Paul Wade
“The upgrades to the athletic facilities, including the nutrition station, is providing an awesome environment to reach new fitness and strength goals.” - Wilkes Eaton ‘25
NUTRITION BAR
“The new Nutrition Fueling Station in The Rock Strength and Conditioning Facility has been a wonderful addition to our athletic program. Thank you to BA parent Brandon Jenkins for assisting with the build. By partnering with Nutrishop we are now able to offer ready-to-drink protein shakes and nutrition bars, providing optimal nutritional recovery after workouts. This partnership also allows BA students to schedule a free nutrition and supplement consultation and in-body scan with a certified professional at their store location. This is going to take our program to the next level!” - Coach Scottie Reall ‘04
