We’ve had all sorts of folks walk out on us, and I always jog over and start explaining, never the cops though. We don’t hop fences…but If one is open we’ll find it.

Private Catholic schools should have reciprocity like yacht clubs.

Yeah, likely it would be just someone saying you can't be there. Not sure who will be there today but probably someone nearby would alert them.

Well-maintained grass is still significantly safer than turf. Of course, the quality of grass fields will vary significantly at the HS level.

Majority of people in CenLa don’t adequately support high school athletics. Only reason Tioga has it, is because of Proctor and Gamble and the other factories right there in that zone. The money was just too abundant.


Simply not true. The reason Tioga has it is because of a renewed bond that comes up every 10 years. The people in that community vote to renew it everytime and the money goes to the schools.
