Sports apparel store Rally House opened in College Park earlier this month.

The Kansas-based retailer, which specializes in official college and pro sports-licensed merchandise, moved into the first-floor retail space under the Landmark Apartments.

The space was previously occupied by a Target Express, which closed in May of last year.

Rally House, which is the official retailer of the Big Ten NCAA conference, has more than 250 locations in 22 states, including a number of college towns.

In addition to shirts, hats and other gear for the University of Maryland and Baltimore and Washington’s pro sports teams, the company said the store also has “locally inspired” merchandise for “area destinations and landmarks.”

The city of College Park gave Rally House a business development grant of up to $130,000 to pay for renovating the 13,000-square-foot retail space.
