Are they limiting fans at the game?  Not a lot of seating on the visitor side and not sure if they're letting anyone stand in the end zone.  This would be a good one to drop in on if it is allowed.

Both schools were allotted 250 tickets. Pioneer brought in portable bleachers with their current visitors set to expand seating. Home team tickets went on sale at 8 am yesterday and were gone by noon. You might be able to get ahold of Andrean's AD to see if they have any available.

Should be a good game , rooting for the Panthers- I'm sure if there was snow in the forecast, Pioneer would make sure the field is clear so there would be no advantage to either team....

Grass fields in the playoffs. Gotta love it. (I don't know where the sarcasm button is, or I'd press it X 100)

Do you know if there will be a online Broadcast of the game?

In my experiences with Andrean (coach and player), they do not travel well.

Thanks for the info.  At first I wondered if they might play at Logansport, but then I saw Logan is home Friday night as well.

Snow's the least of your concerns at The Pit.

This is true. Andrean's field isn't much better, and yes, the snow made it tough, but I believe both teams played on it........

New fun at the Pit for home and visitors alike! Due to covid restrictions there is a limit to only six people in the pressbox, which excludes home and visitor coaches. Any coaches wanting to sit up high in the pressbox will have to "slum it" in the top row with our fans... Its actually pretty embarassing when we get to share this news with other schools.

Any fan restrictions for the game?

Why Not Bring in a couple of Scissor Lifts set up behind the bleachers for the Coaches?

Not to sound sarcastic, but do you think an administration that has allowed their field to be as bad as it is for the last 20 years would take the initiative to rent scissor lifts?

Also, they probably wouldn’t allow it from a liability standpoint.

It’s 1A. Not much turf at this level. I swear to God there isn’t

Former 1A for Pioneers. I think they’ll be back next year. I gotta go

Andreas has sold out of their allotted tickets.

In 1A sometimes there's not so much grass either. 

Heard a visiting team kid complain once getting off the bus that it was a shame that their opponent made them park all the way in the back of this gravel parking and that they had such a long walk to the field.  The bus driver said to the kid, "Quit your b*tchin'.  What do you want?  I drove you right up to the 50 yard line."

Correct.  That is AWESOME.  I sure hope that place is packed as packed allows.  The kids deserve this WONDERFUL atmosphere.

If 2020 had taught me anything, this year doesn't care what we deserve.

Pioneer grinds another one out at the PIT.......22-21.....The Lewellen twins are not quite ready to hang em up. They will carry their team, and the town of Royal Center on their backs; enroute to their first State Finals appearance in 2A....

Isn't even having an event now a days a liability?

It's risk versus reward. In this case there's absolutely no reward to be had. Only bad things happen on scissor lifts! Just ask Notre Dame..I believe they are being sued after being found negligent for improper use of a scissor lift.

I assume you’re speaking of the tragic death of Declan Sullivan while filming football practice 10 years ago. There was never any lawsuit. The Sullivan family remains a valued part of the larger Notre Dame family.
