Holy Cross, Bucknell Football to Share Sideline for Polar Park Game

Tensions on a college football field are typically high when players from different teams are on opposite sidelines, but what if both schools had to share the same bench area?

Holy Cross and Bucknell stand to answer that question on Saturday when the two teams meet at Polar Park, home of the Triple A Worcester Red Sox.

For the second year in a row, Holy Cross will host the “EBW Classic” at the minor league baseball stadium after playing Colgate in 2021. However, images of the setup show the field is rather squeezed into the park, with one traditional sideline area not having much space to hold an entire team.
