New field for Knox Central

[Eddie]

Visited the USSSA state tournament at Schumpert Park in Knoxville over the weekend at the field that will become Knox Central's new home. The field has some real potential -- big dugouts, only 367 to dead center, bullpens certainly need some work. The infield will improve as the years go by, but my biggest concern is the lack of an underground sprinkler system. If the heat keeps up the field will "burn up". This should have been addressed on the front end. Will cost a lot more to go back in at some point and get this done.

That field is owned by Knox County Parks and Recreation. Unless the Central community speaks up, I don't see that happening anytime soon.
