We have. Two trips to the conference finals in the last two years. Cincinnati has more money than any two other USL teams put together and what do they have? Two losses in three games this season.

If I'm the KHSAA, I'm taking a very hard look at this as a possible state football championship location.

Hadn't even thought about that. Will be a great facility with a good capacity for it and football state finals are about three weeks after the soccer playoffs end, so no scheduling conflicts.

I didn't read the article, but will this be a grass or turf facility?

Grass. Only problem with football finals.

The renderings look awesome. Love the location. I think this is going to be a great thing for not only LCFC, but the city as well.

Press releases were noticeably silent on financing, which still remains a big obstacle. But Mayor Fischer dropped some hints about a Butchertown TIF district, but that's just part of a really big question.

Cant, not big enough to host a St. X vs Trinity game.
