The Lights Are On

September 19, 2016

After decades of waiting, Beachwood football fans finally had the opportunity to enjoy a night game at home under stadium lights, and the football team had their first opportunity to play at home on turf, as the district unveiled the newly-renovated, $4.4 million stadium at 7:00 pm on Friday, Sept. 16.

The Beachcomber Staff covered the stadium opening from every angle we could think of. Check out our exclusive coverage.

Sports Editor Max Alter places the renovation into the context of Bison football history.

James Flowers describes the new stadium’s impressive features.

Aden Stern, Social Media Editor for Sports, asks Bison football players how they feel about playing on the new field.

Parker Gill describes the pep rally and the tough loss to Perry.

When you work on something for years and years, you’re so relieved when it comes through. I’m so excited for the players to have such a beautiful stadium with turf and lights and to put teams out there that are excited to play on a Friday night.

— Athletic Director Ryan Peters
