Lights have been installed at the PC baseball field as of the first week of June. The first-ever lights will be ready when the Blue Hose baseball team returns to campus this coming fall.
The addition of the lights was made possible by private donors and a grant from the City of Clinton's Accommodations Tax Fund. Grants from the Fund are used to support initiatives that will increase tourism in the city.
"It's an awesome day for all those connected to the Blue Hose baseball program," said PC Head Baseball Coach
Elton Pollock.
"I extend my most sincere gratitude to all who have donated and sacrificed to make this project a reality. Additionally, I would like to thank the Presbyterian College Board of Trustees, former President Bob Staton, Director of Athletics Rob Acunto, VP of Advancement Jacki Berkshire and her team for all their efforts behind the scenes in getting this done.
"The impact will not only be felt on campus among our baseball student-athletes, but across the entire City of Clinton and Laurens County area communities. My hope is we will now be able to draw our community closer together via family evenings at the ballpark, while enjoying Division I baseball right in our backyard."
