The name change from “StarTex Power Field” to “Constellation Field” results from the recent merger between StarTex Power and Constellation Energy, one of the nation’s oldest and largest energy providers. Over the next few months StarTex Power will be changing its name to Constellation Energy. No other provisions of the 10-year Naming Rights Agreement are affected by this name change. The $35 million Constellation Field is currently under construction at the intersection of State Highway 6 and U.S. Highway 90A in Sugar Land, and will open this spring. The City of Sugar Land approved the name change at the City Council meeting on Tuesday. “Constellation’s merger with StarTex enhances an already strong partnership,” said Matt O’Brien, President of the Sugar Land Skeeters. “Adding more resources and community initiatives while maintaining local relationships will only bring greater good for Skeeters Baseball and the entire Sugar Land community.” Constellation Field, owned by the City of Sugar Land, is a $35 million multi-purpose facility built to Triple-A standards. The stadium will play host to a multitude of other sporting events, including football, soccer and lacrosse, as well as concerts and other non-sporting events.
