This plan is a great first step toward gaining more fan and student involvement in the games as even the non-sports fans will at least be inter- ested in seeing what will be done with the addi- tional 3,600 square feet of available room. Other renovations currently O’Brien Stadium include five new score- The planned renovations to the boards for the basket- stadium will interest the Eastern ball court, swimming community in their sports teams. pools, indoor track, and baseball and soft- ball fields. Coaches are also expected to get new office space and possibly a room in which to review game or meet films and a new team weight room. With these sparkling new facilities, all of Eastern’s sports teams should be inspired to go out and christen each and every new facility with a blowout win. The winning ways should contin- ue as more fans come out to not only check out the new facilities, but cheer on a pumped up team as well. In the past, many athletic events have had poor attendance except for special games such as Homecoming or Family Weekend. The renova- tions will spark a new interest in Eastern teams. Most would agree that $1.69 million dollars is a small cost to pay if it means the difference between attending a school with a poorly devel- oped sports program with poor facilities or a bet- ter organized program with teams that have a better opportunity to succeed because of better quality training and playing facilities. After these renovations, Panther teams will remember what home-court advantage means.
