Who will the rain and sloppy field help more...I do know Ashland tried to move the game to Saturday, so maybe they think it will help GC more.

Only one more day until Football Friday night!

Painter doesn't want his lines messed up.:lol:

 

Seriously though, I thought football was an outdoor sport and with the exception of lightning or catastrophic conditions would always be played? Ashland has a history of rescheduling "rainy" game situations. Why is that?

I am guessing,but with soccer and football the field gets tore up enough without a mud bowl right at the start of the season, or maybe the rain doesnt suit the new offense very well.

Soccer? Are you kidding? They have their own field.

Let's not get to your second thought. Let's concentrate on your first. I, too, would hate to have my grass turf destroyed in week one but that is a true hazard of a grass field. It may happen more than I am aware of (rescheduling games) but I think it is just an unfortunate event that occurs and you play with what Mother Nature gives you.

Sorry,I didnt make that very clear, I was refering to Doc's post about them doing it in the past. I know that used to be a problem.

In a little over 24 hours Greenup County will descend upon Ashland and we will see which of all these predictions are true!!! May both teams stay injury free and let's have a great game!

Any more talk of postponing the game until Saturday? Currently, it is a little cloudy outside.:idunno:

Actually, GC wanted to move the freshmen and JV to Putnam Stadium next week, but I believe a deal has been arranged for the non-varsity Muskies to play at Ashland on Labor Day weekend. Is the GC field not ready to go?

 

Considering all the rain, Putnam’s field has drained fairly well although there are still a few “soft” spots out there. Overall, the surface is very playable.

True! I do hate “messed up” lines.:lol: As for Ashland’s history of rescheduling games, I can think of times in the past which, as a spectator, was glad it was moved because of severe weather. I also know there has been consideration given to all the teams (Verity 7th and 8th grade, about 6 JFL teams, Freshmen and JV) which play at Putnam and their respective schedules…sometimes, it just made more sense moving the varsity game.

 

I plan on being at BC this Saturday, so I really hope Ashland plays on Friday as scheduled.

As of 2:30 today (Thursday), the game will still be played on Friday night. "Meet the Tomcats" was cancelled for this evening.
