    They were going to name them the Marysville Bullets but people thought that was too violent an image. They will be the Twin City Bullets, instead.

    Glad Dobbins is still getting lights. Was the funding already secured?

    If memory serves, when the BB stadium was built they had the presence of mind to install conduit for future stadium lighting. But and it is a big but, this was a mostly voluntary construction project, so who knows if those conduits meet present standards and codes or can still work. If this is yes, it could save a lot of money. But my gut says no. You construction guys know this much better than I do. Thoughts?

    I remember someone, probably abridge, saying the lights were purchased prior to the season by the ownership group and were en route but stuck somewhere. Perhaps they finally arrived ?

    The procurement of lights may be part of their lease agreement.

    I'd differ slightly in the description. The original layout was volunteer based, but Coach Swimley had some sharp folks put together plans. The second-half was funded by the Dobbins Family, I'm guessing it was more 'professional', but campus foot dragging over gender equity issues delayed construction and shrank the project (inflation).
