Good for them, but are they gonna fix those Janky bleachers???  Those are the worst in the district,. Even Lavergne may be better?.

I thought they were just solid concrete.

No turf for Stewy?

I am sure Stewy wants turf. I am sure LaVergne, Siegel, Riverdale, Eagleville all want it. Smyrna is lucky to have the donor they have or they would not be getting turf. Not sure SC has been around long enough yet to have that kind of alumni.

They are...except the visitors side is about  the size a double wide staircase (sarcasm) but ridiculously small. seems odd to put in a great field with crappy bleachers .

I am hearing that Smyrna’s turf will be paid in full before it is put down.  I think Blackman’s and Oakland’s turf was financed.

That's true, but Oakland or Blackman's stadium isn't falling apart like Smyrna is. Kind of ironic that a concrete company is donating the funds for a turf field when the concrete is the reason it's probably the worst facility in RuCo

Surely you meant turf field.  As I recall the last “turd” field I saw in the district was residing on Patriot Drive, of course this was before they “turfed” it.

That's what I get for posting before the caffeine kicked in. I guess since Riverdale can't beat Oakland anymore, you gotta take your victories where you can

Touché!

Oh the memories of the Battle of the Boro at Floyd on a real concrete field!
