STA VS CHAMINADE @FIU Stadium!!!!

[Jullian]

So Broward’s best game of the year will be played in Dade county!!!!  According to SBlive that’s the story! Can’t use the words I wanna use. Oh not because of the forum’s rule, but because I’m too often in the doghouse with my LORD. 
 

Please tell me I’ve heard wrong……(angry face).

I've heard the same thing I guess it's to accommodate for more fans to be at the game cause chaminades capacity isn't that big and everyone had this one circled on the calendar when the schedule first dropped

As little since as this location makes , it’s true I found out about this a few weeks ago. Funny how they made it happen for FiU to host. 
 

but yet they couldn’t make anything happen with DRV pink (old Lockhart stadium). 
 

a long awaited matchup between two broward powerhouses & it’s played in dade, Smh.

Hey, it's not in the county, but it's a good venue for a high caliber high school game.

Woulda liked it better up to the FAU stadium. But if nothing else, you’re right bout a better venue. Chaminade & Gibbons are the only stadiums down here that have bleachers only on one side of the stadium.

Garbage……..

[FBGUY1989]

I'm guessing they're expecting a big crowd for this game but still with both being Broward County Schools I would have thought Lockhart Stadium. My only assumption is that FIU isn't charging a lot to host this game vs Lockhart.

[Perspective]

Is FIU's stadium located on campus? 

If so, does this game count as an official visit for all the kids dressing out for the game? 

[TreyS]

Do you know if this game is gonna be broadcasted somewhere like YT or ESPN?

[JDHoss]

Thinking about taking this one in. We saw Chaminade v Monarch last Saturday, and I'd like to check out STA's Julius Jones Jr. His dad played at my old high school in Virginia, and I casually knew his papaw and mamaw.

I totally agree with you on this! Makes no sense at all! None!!!

Here’s an example that might help MY HUDDLE brothers understand “our game” (Broward county) , that we’ve waited for a long time, being played outta county: Next year we’ll host the Miami Central vs NW game at Lockhart Stadium in Broward County! Ya wanna hear some NOISE! Lol

I’m thinking the main concern is fan capacity. STA used to bring in portable bleachers in the playoffs. Chaminade coulda done the same thing. Switch the game to Aquinas! You think the same amount of Lion fans wouldn’t make the 20 minute drive? Plus it would be in central Broward county. There might b a more diabolical reason: It’s been put out there that the state championships for 1a-7a are going to be at FIU stadium. Is this a trial run? 
Regardless, it’s still wrong for the fans of Broward County & that seems to be the last thought in this decision……

DRV Pink Stadium would be perfect! In Broward and Inter Miami isn't playing.

Just don't play it at Coconut Creek. We've been there twice this year, and both times the scoreboard was on the fritz. The first time (for the double header) they brought in a portable which was better than nothing. Last Saturday the PA system wasn't working and the sprinkler system came on, soaking some (us included) fans as they were walking out.

I gather Dade/Broward aren't canceling/postponing games?

This was my first thought. Not sure why they are having such a hard time getting the finals scheduled. There is no reason it shouldn't be settled before the season begins.

Yes, motivated, dedicated, & professional men would have done that. I’ll just leave it there…….

School is scheduled to reopen Friday morning. All events hinge on that……
