Sugar Land Skeeters under new ownership

SUGAR LAND, Texas - After a season of success, that included an appearance in the Atlantic League Championship Series, the Sugar Land Skeeters are under new ownership.

The Sugar Land City Council approved an ownership change on Oct. 28.

Bob and Marcie Zlotnik, who were one-third minority owners of the ballclub, now have 100 percent ownership of the Skeeters.

"We are thrilled that the success of our team and stadium has resulted in local ownership,” said Sugar Land Mayor James Thompson in a statement. "We are looking forward to working more closely with the Zlotniks and believe their local presence and passion for baseball will be of great benefit to Sugar Land."

The Zlotniks have past experience representing and working for sports and entertainment companies.

"Marcie and I are incredibly excited to continue our relationship with the Skeeters and to further partner with the entire Sugar Land community,” said Bob Zlotnik. “In just three short years, Constellation Field has become a well-recognized destination entertainment location, and we look forward to it continuing to set the standard for quality professional minor league baseball."
