Nope, no 6As without turf anymore! .. and there are 6 5As left. Both Terre Hautes, Castle, FW Northside, Mishawaka, Concord. 

I can share the updated document with you, if you would like! 

FW North Side and FW South SIde (4A) WILL have turf in the next few years!  That has been promised by the FWCS leadership, and I believe it will happen.  They are just going year to year with upgrades to the fields.  FW South SIde is slated to be up next.

Will this include a set of chains that are 10 yards long?

Thanks guys! I will update accordingly. Wonder if Batesville/Franklin Co getting turf will force Greensburg? Hmm

I was at Greensburg for a meeting a couple of weeks ago, amazing to me with the facilities they have, they have that field.

As someone who coaches a few outdoor sports in the conference, I hope so! Maybe force Connersville's hand also.

There’s a back story to the FB vid that was making the rounds Saturday. I was in no way involved, I was getting in plenty of trouble on my own.

We are supposed to have turf next year. Not sure of the exact timeline, but thinking it will be started on after track season.

Thought I had heard or read that somewhere. Also heard Connersville may be getting turf as well, if that is true that would leave Rushville as the only Eiac school without it

Going through the sectionals and making adjusts to my graph....

I need some help-- 

Where will Purdue Polytech play next year?

SB Clay do they have their own field? SB Riley? Sorry.. the South Bend schools are confusing in regards to where they play. 

Hammond Central will play where? 

FW Snider still play at someone elses field?

Where does Tindley play?

Franklin County 

 

Franklin County School Board approves field turf at Wildcat Stadium

September 14, 2022 Tom Snape

Brookville, IN — Another area high school will soon have a synthetic playing surface.

The Franklin County School Board has approved the purchase and installation of field turf at Wildcat Stadium.

The school board voted 7-0 in favor of the plan.

Franklin County becomes the latest area high school to install the synthetic surface at its football stadium, following East Central, Batesville, Milan, Lawrenceburg, and South Dearborn.

Besides football, other school sports, marching band, and the community will be able to use the field when the turf goes in.

Snider shares a stadium with Northrop (at Northrop HS).     Spuller Stadium 

I don't know anything about the other schools.

Washington, Washington? Surely not the one I'm thinking of.

I haven’t been to Washington in probably 8-10 years, but Washington always had a nice playing surface. I would think given their physical layout this is going to impact their track?

Clay's varsity field is at their middle school, but I can't remember what they call it - Clay Field probably. Riley plays at Jackson Field, also at their middle school, and Adams and Washington play at School Field.

I feel like the guy said it would be located at a different location. Can't remember on that.
