Joe Yanni Sports Field Makeover Is Now State-Of-The-Art

Coming in the Summer of 2018, the Joe Yanni Sports Field makeover at Pershing County High School in Lovelock, Nevada will stop you in its tracks! Tom Donaldson, the man in charge of the Pershing County School District facilities is spearheading the project. The new Sports Field will give high school students in Lovelock, state-of-the-art facilities using the same NFL Grade Coolplay FieldTurf System that has recently been installed for the New England Patriots and universities across the country, including UNR. The new bright red track will be the same NCAA compliant synthetic track systems used on the best track and fields in the world. The makeover will include the world class Musco LED stadium lighting system for crystal clear viewing during night games. There will be no missed calls under these lights!

Project Manager, Steve Brigman, Principal at Shaw Engineering has scheduled design completion for early this September. “Construction should begin shortly after football season at the end of October or the beginning of November,” says Brigman “We are excited to be a part of this upgrade, which will benefit the students, teachers and families in Lovelock. It’s a fun project and will be a wonderful addition to the community.”

The project is being funded by the Pershing County School District Capital Project Fund. We want to thank the Superintendent, Russell Fecht and the School District Board of Trustees; Walter Bringerhoff, Shayla Hudson, Joe Crim, James Evans, and Michael Mancebo for their support in bringing this project to fruition. Go Mustangs!
