bigger is better
We've all heard the phrase "bigger is better" right? Well at Toledo Whitmer High School they took it literally when the turf at Whitmer memorial stadium was put in. The huge panther logo in the center of the Field reaches from one thirty nine yard line to the other making it the largest center Field logo in the United States. This is just the beginning for a football program that likes to go big. The stadium which seats 10,000 also has a new scoreboard equipped with a HD jumbotron for instant replay. The crowd pleasing screen is 19 feet wide and 10 feet high. Also coming soon with a stadium renovation will be new lights installed, concessions and restrooms. While all of this is expensive, winning makes people forget about the price right away. Last season the Panthers were the Toledo City League Champs and made an appearance in the OHSAA Division 1 playoffs.

To have turf on your football field is awesome. You have to be a really good team to be able to get turf on the field.
ReplyDeleteThats crazy that a high school team has all of that. But it just goes to show you they money you can have when you have a successful program.
