And now a quick photo update on two brand-new football fields coming to a town near you — well, at least if you live in Oxford or Madison.
Oxford has already laid down its turf field and has added bleachers on the site of its old practice field next to the school. It looks like they’ll be ready come September. It should, they started about midway through last year.
Meanwhile, Hand’s Surf Club complex, which didn’t break ground until after the final home game in the state playoffs, has seen the grass surface of Strong Field ripped to shreds and the old stands and press box on the north end torn down. They have all summer to get this thing humming and it’s supposed to be a beaut.
The two photos were posted by Oxford Football’s official Twitter account, and the Surf Club shot was posted by @Edmundo25.
