The Board also will be asked to approve improvements to Foley Field. "We’re not going to build a brand new facility," McGarity said. "We don’t have that necessity at this point. A few upgrades will be discussed tomorrow." There has been talk in past board meetings about making some code corrections to the press box and improvements to the right field area known as Kudzu Hill. The current baseball stadium was built in 1990 around the existing field. As UGA outlined in its master plan three years ago: "The stadium has become outdated over the years. The updates to the stadium have not responded to new facilities at rival institutions, therefore if is no longer near the top of the list of both national and conference baseball facilities. The press box is undersized and the stadium needs to be brought up to current codes."

The nickeling and diming of the University's oldest varsity sport continues. Go 'Dawgs!
