First Real Mention of the new Soccer Complex
Wick250:
That is a good question. In the article, the university stresses the need for a "regulation" soccer field, wide and without a crown. So is the Ashland facility "regulation?" If so, would there be room across Fifth Avenue for something that long and that wide? I guess we will have our answers shortly.

i found this nugget on the internet concerning samfords new soccer facility..........
Samford University dedicated its new track and soccer stadium Friday, April 22, hours before student-athletes christened it with Southern Conference track and field championship competition.
Athletics director Martin Newton, acknowledging that the university provides an excellent “broad-based education and athletic experience for all Samford students,” noted that athletics is sometimes called the “front porch to a university.”
“We are proud to have this front porch on Lakeshore Drive. It will contribute to helping Samford student-athletes compete at the highest level in the Southern Conference,” said Newton.
The complex, which includes a nine-lane track with a regulation soccer field inside the track, is located just across Lakeshore Drive from the campus.
