Good writeup on this in the TimesDaily this morning. The players seem to be super excited.
With the way softball has exploded in popularity, I'm so glad we continue to invest in the program. It really is our most successful sport at the moment.

Before y'all ask, new box, grandstand chairs, instead of bleachers, bricked facade around the grandstands including the outfield and around the fence. And possibly another grandstand either in the outfield, 1st base line, or have even heard a possibility when the new box is made, adding an upper deck.
I think the upper deck would be awesome, put a canopy over it to help keep the Sun off and help for rain...

With Liberty gone, I don't see why we can't compete for conference titles now.

Speaking of Bama, they are playing in Florence this year.... But..... Is that for sure? Might want to bring in some temporary bleachers if so. Might be filled with crimson, but at least we could make some money.

Anyone know what's going on at the Softball field? From their instagram, they are ripping the whole field up and there is a lot of dirt moving around. I thought they just put in turf in part of the field.

I thought they just put in turf in part of the field. I don't know... I remember them doing that a few years ago when I was at the fire station across the road though. They put in new clay and crushed brick on the infield and new sod in the outfield But I haven't heard anything lately.

still haven't heard what they are doing at the UNA softball facility. It's a good thing they don't have a home game till 3/8. Field is still complete dirt and a mess today from all the rain. They will probably be set back a week from this weather. I wonder where they are practicing also. Who's wonderful idea was it to redo the entire field 2 months before the season? If it's not turf in the entire field, the grass will not set in correctly with this cold weather.
