The money for the sports complex was from a private donor. It was not state money... Get your facts straight.

The way I understand it, the state will NOT pay for any sports facilities when building new schools, other than a gym......... :12224

Yes, they will make a push. Since the practice starts in 9 days and the season in 47 and it is a gravel parking lot right now, they are going to "push" as you say it. They are going to build backstops, fence, bleachers, restrooms, bring in dirt, plant grass, watch it grow. When it doesn't grow, buy turf, lay it down and start playing. All in the span of 47 days. Why ask a question that you already know the answer to?
