Standing in front of the grass Bill Kuntz Field, athletic members and boosters of Harrison High School put on white hard hats and put polished shovels into a mound of dirt in front of them.

It was the beginning of the end for the dirt pile, as well as the grass behind it.

Harrison held a groundbreaking March 5 for the project that will put artificial turf into its football stadium. The project, which will also include a digital scoreboard, visitor concessions and grass practice space, received a boost from a Cincinnati Bengals and the NFL Foundation Grassroots Program grant.
