    What are class sizes like right now? Would they need to build a new school or?

    Not sure on the size of classes there.

    Wasn’t Washington suppose to close like 10-15 years ago?

Would this new field just be for soccer to use when the football team is not there to avoid wear and tear on their regular field?

    I hate football fields with tracks around them from a fan perspective, but I suppose that's small potatoes in the grand scheme of things. Wonder if Washington School is gonna be around much longer.
    I don't hate fields with tracks but I love the intimacy of fans closer to the field. One of our D3 schools had stands right behind the bench and maybe 15 feet from the sideline. When I'm there for a kickoff I can smell someone's bad breath I'm so close.

    They built a nice new stadium this off-season and put the track around it. It just won't be the same.

    This photo was taken from the top row of the visitor stands. You can see the railing below and the proximity to the sideline. It's tighter than even the Fargodone.

    Here is video from a couple months ago. You can see the old stadium in the background in some of the shots.

    Yes, they haven't had a successful football program in a while; in fact, they are in danger of becoming the UMary/Minot State of the GPAC football conference. However, kudos to the folks in Jamestown in their efforts to up grade their facilities. I am sure Rollie Greeno is smiling.

    Would love to see the Jimmies embrace Bison fans for a game. Set up a tailgating area, encourage folks to wear the green or yellow mask and have a Bison home game for UJ. How many seats does the bowl hold? Their admin and AD seem to be the only ones with enough Moxy in this state to pull it off. They could also do a UND event as well.
