Re: Hens at UVA 2026

You can bet that funding for Bridgeforth Stadium was the result of Northern Virginia "big bucks" finding its way down to Harrisonburg. The money for our expansion project is there, its just a matter of developing a strategy and going after it. :wink:

Re: Upcoming 2023 Season

Gosh! Things have sure changed down there. Back in college at Blue Hen University in the late 60's we would rent out a trailer and spend a week or two. All I remember is the "Bottle 'n Cork" :lol: :lol:
