Staff Reports
After two straight Saturdays with substantial rain, several grass parking lots on Clemson’s campus look quite a bit worse for wear. With a third-straight home game upcoming on Saturday, the athletic department is pulling out all the stops to get the lots into usable shape.
On Wednesday, the department utilized the services of a helicopter to push standing water and blow wet areas in Lots 1, 2, 13 and 14. The use of the helo, recommended by grass turf professionals, is the latest in a week-long effort to dry the fields.
Clemson will continue to work the fields on Thursday and a meeting on Friday will determine what if any adjustments need to be made.
