Playing Catch Up!!?

I realize this is coming far too late, so please accept my apologies. I think this blog has been entirely inactive since last spring. We have seen a great deal of change on MANY levels since last you heard from me here....and it is my hope to catch you up all at once...so GET READY!!

FACILITY


Above: You are looking at the team bench areas as well as the Isom Memorial.


Above: The spectator seating has been extended to each endline, stretching the entire length of the field, opposite the team areas.

In all, the facility, named Paul McGinlay Field and to be dedicated on September 23, prior to kickoff of our match against OLLU, underwent a renovation of just over $1,000,000 over the spring and early summer.
