New Softball Facility Coming

[ULvictory]

Sirs:
The construction starts in October 2009.

Sept, Oct, maybe November. One month to take it down. Three weeks to prepare the foundation. Three months to put it up. That's four and a half months+. Completed by the end of March.......Someone start a poll guessing the completion date. As soon as the schedule comes out, guess the first home game you will be able to sit in the grandstand.

Thanks, I stand corrected, October.

Last time I talked to Coach Mahfouz, at the end of last season, it will be at the end of the current stands closest to S College. I saw the plans, two level, offices, locker rooms, lounge overlooking the field. Greatly needed.

I spoke to scott a few weeks back and he also showed me the plans. He explained that the upper 'meeting' room will serve as a press box during events, thus requiring it to be at or near the start/finish line, or mid-field for soccer. Unlike softball, the start of construction shouldn't really matter much because all of it will take place outside of the stadium and it will not affect seating or prevent us from hosting events. In the end, the entrance to the place will be moved a little bit towards SC Rd.

_ Of course it is, I heard from a totally un-relieable source that a 50 foot high steel wall will be built all the way around the stadium during construction just so no one can see what is going on. We'll all have to wait to see the "plans" in the final product. _

Cameras baby, camera's.........yea that's the ticket!!!

How about spend a little money and cover the seating area at the Track/Soccer complex. I look like a crawfish after Sunday's game.

Also, why does it say this on ragincajuns.com?

"The soccer benches have a Plexiglas cover complete with a cooling system."

All I saw were two plain benches the teams were sitting on.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned this yet. The artist's renderings were unveiled in this year's football program.

The construction signs. Are they for the softball field or the new Bourge wieghtroom that was voted on many years ago!!!!! Where is all that money at?

Yeah my thoughts exactly. Someone with a scanner needs to throw the pictures up there.

I'm very impressed with the renderings. It's nothing fancy but it's very nice and a huge improvement over what we have now. I am excited to see the final product!
