Worst- THE CAGE. Easily the worst field in the state. Its tiny, torn up, and to make it worse, doesnt really have a good team playing on it.




I feel compelled to reply. First, the Cage measures 115 x 56-2/3. The reason the Cage feels so compact is that the field is surrounded by a four-lane (rather than 6-8) track and the stands are much closer to the field. Also, there are two-story buildings directly overlooking the pitch, so it appears that the field is smaller, when in fact the measurements are pretty close to what you'll find at Airport, Lexington, White Knoll, etc.

As for the condition of the turf, it is poor this year no doubt - certainly in relation to past years. A certain result of poor maintenance over the years and a poor drainage system that has never been good.

The last comment about having a good team play on it is left to your interpretation of what constitutes a "good team." I for one, believe our team has over-achieved a bit thus far and that we have improved over the course of the season and hope that we continue to do so. We have a good bunch of boys that are committed to finding ways to represent Bearcat Soccer and this has been an enjoyable group to coach.
