FB: Northwest Conference

Speaking of stadiums, McCulloch is getting a significant facelift this summer.  Construction crews are currently replacing Ted Ogdahl Field and resurfacing the Charles Bowles Track.  Photo gallery (updated weekly) HERE.  Below is an architectural rendition of the end-product, including the redesigned field and upgraded track:



Willamette's aging Lestle J. Sparks Center is also getting an extensive renovation right now, a project that includes a vastly expanded weight room for both students and student athletes.  A photo gallery of that project (also updated weekly) can be found HERE, while details of the renovation can be found at http://www.willamette.edu/athletics/facilities/sparks_renovation/index.php

Are they putting bleachers up for the visiting fans or are Linfield fans going to just have to take over the main grandstand once again?

Gads, we're predictable.
I was going to post the same thing until I noticed this new page.

BCP,

Had to get that jab in last night but on a serious note good for Willamette on getting a new rug.  The old one was way past its expiration date.  I'm expecting Linfield to replace theirs in the next year or two.

Former Linfield standout offensive lineman and assistant coach Daryl Agpalsa has been hired at UW-WHITEWATER where he will coach the offensive line.

I have mixed feelings about this. I'm glad for Coach Agpalsa, but UW-Whitewater. Yikes!

Caught the Montreal/Winnipeg CFL game tonight and thought I recognized a couple of coaches:

McMinnville or Bust!

It must be getting close to football season as Mrs. OldCat and I have again slipped the surely bonds of the "old-folks home" in Sun City (AZ) and are headed to McMinnville. Gotta pick up our season tickets and practice driving to the CatDome so that we don't get lost on Saturdays to come.

Not to mention escaping the 120 degree heat.

At least its Dry Heat.

Does anyone know when D III.com will announce their pre season  top 25 poll?

[Pat Coleman]

Generally we are around the week of July 15 and we are on track for that again this year. I have asked for preseason info from schools by next Thursday.

[D O.C.]

That must be hard with so many SID vacations and new to the job.

Thank you Pat and a Happy July 4th to you and your family.  Your reply reminds me of all you have given us here on the DIII forum to add such an exciting element  to the teams we love. We are indeed grateful.  And a Happy 4th of July to all DIII fans on the board.
