IPF question
So as long as we were building the CPC why didn't they just adjust it a bit so we could have indoor track take place there including adding a team to assist with Title IX compliancy?
I know there was a supposed attempt when they did the Convo, but this seems like another missed opportunity.
They will have a track but it's non compliant, it just seems with a better configuration we could have done this completely right. I really doubt it would have cost a whole lot more.

RE: IPF question
The track team seems to be VERY happy with the CPC, Convo and their outdoor track.
A few more million dollars for the W/Track team was not worth it.
Its worth it to get them and the soccer teams lights first.

Simple. A football field is too large to fit inside a 200 m track.

with all due respect, the track team is good where it is. we have track only because we have to have it. This is primarily a football facility and I would suspect used by minor sports in footballs off hours.
