The question as to whether the Student Athletic Center stadium will be ready for play on August 27, 2010 has been answered.
Fans were expecting to see the first official football game to be played on the $30 million dollar facility on August 27, 2010 at 7:30 pm when the CC Winn Mavericks football team plays Devine High School. In an official statement, a district official has assured that the facility will be ready for the game. It was also explained that the project had been delayed due to persistent rains in the local area.
Because of the amount of construction that still needs to be completed, some speculated that the new field would not be ready and as a result the game would have to be held at the old Eagle Pass Field.
The parking area and some access construction to the stadium is a major piece of work that is still pending but is expected to be completed before the scheduled date for CC Winn's first game.
It was also mentioned that the Fine Arts building will be delayed for another year. Already funded, the building's cost is estimated to be $6.5 million.
