Pilot Point turned out to root for the home team on its new home field on Tuesday for the ribbon cutting of the baseball field’s new turf playing surface before the varsity team beat rival Whitesboro, 8-2.
The Pilot Point community arrived en masse to share food, celebrate the completion of the renovations to the baseball field’s new playing surface and watch as Pilot Point’s varsity team smothered Whitesboro on PPYSA youth night.
“It’s been a beautiful event, and a lot of fun seeing all the families and all the students here,” said Dr. Brant Perry, PPISD assistant superintendent of operations and administration. “… This field will absolutely be a part of many generations to come as a place to celebrate athletics, and on behalf of Dr. [Shannon] Fuller, myself, and the entire administration, we’d really like to thank the board for putting together the field for us and giving us the funds in order to do this for the kids.”
