MACON, Ga. - The Mercer soccer field is getting a new look. Finally reaching a break in the busy summer camp season, the grounds crew began an overhaul of the Mercer pitch last week. These changes focus mainly on the playing surface, leveling the field and planting new grass to improve the quality of the pitch. The crew will work diligently to have the new grass in place in time for Mercer women's head coach Grant Serafy's girls individual camp on July 24-27.
The new pitch will see its first competitive action on August 20, when the men's soccer team opens it regular season with a home match against Clayton State. The Mercer women open their regular season at Bear Field a day later, taking on Jacksonville State at home on Aug. 21.
