Some students are defying gravity as they climb to new heights. Bobcat Update's Zach Butler tells us about the rock climbing center that Texas State has to offer.

SU:
The Texas State Rec Center offers students the chance to face their fears and reach some new highs. The only requirement: you can't be afraid of heights.

The Rockwall Climbing Center is an all-inclusive facility that sits in the heart of the Texas State Rec Center. Rockwall attendant Nik Farrell says the view can't be beat.

The facility features two 54-foot climbing towers where students can rope climb and a bouldering center for students who don't like to be tied to a rope. Texas State Graduate student Sara Salisbury says there's a big difference between the two types of climbing.
SB:
Farrell encourages any level of climber to come and try out the wall.

First-time climber Jacob Armitage says rock climbing brings out an assortment of feelings.

The Rockwall actually played an important part when Salisbury was choosing to go to Texas State.

If you want an adrenaline rush, the Rockwall Climbing Center is open every day at the Rec Center. For Bobcat Update, I'm Zach Butler.
