Good info/thoughts by both of you....

I'm confident the 3 of us could come up with a fairly extensive list of schools that do more for their athletic programs WITH LESS resources than HC has at it's disposal.

EXAMPLE : Hart Center was built over 25 years ago and yet the original chair-back seats are just NOW being replaced. The original wooden floor bleachers should have been replaced 10 YEARS AGO with modern aluminum/composite plastic fold/roll away seats. The original interior orange/white color scheme LONG AGO should have been replaced with a purple/gray/white scheme.

Talk about differed maintenance !!

Someone here recently mentioned the horrid condition of the tennis court surfaces.

How about the softball field....up to even Junior High School standards ?

Hart Center rink ? That's akin to an auxilary/practice rink at most town/county run rinks let alone being up to snuff with ECAC level venues.

Fitton Field - the renovation in the mid-1980's brought the facility up to 1970 standards ! Someone mentioned here over the winter that OUR TEAM dresses for games up at the Fieldhouse and is then BUSSED down to Fitton FOR LACK OF A LOCKER ROOM at Fitton....THAT is ridiculous !!!

....end of latest rant.
