Christine Turpin works as the sports dietitian for Towson University athletics and said the newly opened Tiger Fuel Zone serves as a concession stand with "not-so-concession" items.
The Tiger Fuel Zone, which opened at the start of the fall semester on the second floor of the Towson Center and operates from 9 a.m.-11 a.m. Monday-Thursday, features free drinks and snacks for student-athletes coming to or leaving practice, or even if they just want to grab a quick bite.
Turpin said the Tiger Fuel Zone has started well, with 200-250 students coming through weekly. In fact, opening it for more hours will likely be considered, and that's just fine with Turpin.
