Football Locker Room Renovation Project
|
When the Racers return to campus for fall practice, they'll come back to a remodeled locker room. The metal lockers that were installed when the stadium was built 33 years ago will be gone. In their place will be brand new wooden lockers. Each locker will have a custom name plate, with uniform number and hometown, for the player using the locker. In addition, each player's locker will have a list of all the players that have worn his uniform number and the honors those players received during their career at Fans can follow the progress of the renovation by viewing the pictures attached to the links below. |
