In the fall of 1963, the first Howard Payne basketball game was played in the Brownwood Coliseum shortly after the facility’s dedication. The 4,000 seat Brownwood Coliseum was a result of visionary leaders of the Brownwood community and has served Brown County and Howard Payne University very well in its over half century of use.

Howard Payne University has been very blessed to have a strong relationship with the City of Brownwood as the two move forward into the next 50 years.

Many amazing athletic events have been held in the Coliseum. Howard Payne has been fortunate to have the Coliseum play host to Yellow Jacket basketball and volleyball games as well as banquets, concerts and graduations.

Yellow Jacket basketball teams have won 22 conference titles from the Lone Star, Texas Collegiate Athletic Association and American Southwest Conferences while using the Brownwood Coliseum.

The Brownwood community and Howard Payne University also broke a national record for the largest crowd to ever see a NCAA Division III women’s basketball game set during the 2007 NCAA Division III playoffs.
