Commentary: Football practice complex is a “transformational” moment

You always hear sports announcers, in an effort to build excitement and tension, talk about the “turning point” of the game. You’ve heard them all: the critical fourth down play inside the opponent’s five, late in the game. The crucial strikeout with the tying run on third. It’s a moment in a game when a team does something special, or extraordinary, or simply a key that turns the tide its way.

That turning point was spotlighted yesterday when the Marco Battaglia Football Practice Complex was dedicated.

It is an important step in moving forward in terms of better facilities to attract better athletes.
