CSUS football field under construction


Construction of the new, turf football/soccer field began right after graduation.  Our new athletic league, The West Bay Athletic League, plays football, yes Crystal Football, in the fall and boys and girls soccer in the winter.  When the autumn and winter rains arrived, the field was so overused that it was a miserable and a dangerous experience to be on the grass field.  And then there is the financial impact of mowing and watering the grass field.  Well, when all the above was carefully considered, the concept of replacing the old field with artificial turf got some real traction.  I will keep you posted with more pictures and facts and figures as the summer progresses.  

Football practice begins August 17 and the homecoming football game is October 10.  Kickoff is at 1:00.  See you there.
