Holmes Rumored Getting Turf This Summer.

Holy Cross won't have to worry about a football field after the boom is lowered on them... :banana:

Doesn't HC still play home games at Tom Ellis?

 

I think so. I'm guessing they pay some form of rent a la NewCath at Newport Stadium. If so, I'd suspect that rent money will continue to flow toward installation, upkeep, services, etc.

It does vary by site. I can't remember the timeline for Dixie, but I do remember When Scotts turd was installed, it wasn't completed until mid season.

 

:poop:

Probably has a lot to do with location and when installation can begin. For instance, I'd guess if your field was stand alone, they could start quicker than if it was near another field, had shared parking, or other things similar to that.

I have NO idea about what is really going on but I'll bet you a Schneider's iceball nothing happens.

HC is playing some where else this year.

I don't know either but I'll take that bet! I haven't had one of those in quite a long time! :hungry:

Because of the new turf or because of a better deal?

If you remember they got money from the Bengals. I heard they are playing at TMC now.

I guess I should have proofread. An unfortunate typing error. I've fixed it

Did not know that. Thanks! :thumb:

 

Does Thomas More have lights?

I thought they were working with TMC on getting lights, but were going to play at Scott this year. I'm probably wrong

Putting a new turf field down usually IS a major renovation. Usually lots of earth to be moved, infrastructure and drainage to be put in place etc. I'm guessing with the age of the facility, it's not going to be a simple job.

 

This statement is true! Holmes field is so lopsided and there are many pipes under the field. From what I heard this rumor is true and they're supposedly making the field wide enough to host regional tournaments for soccer. With them leveling out the ground and everything this could take all season long to complete
