San Marcos High School will soon have a football stadium to call its own. Drew Bryant has more on the story.

When Head Football Coach Mark Soto arrived two years ago, he promised to rebuild a winning tradition for a struggling athletic program. Part of that rebuilding process is an eight-thousand seat football stadium and a state-of-the-art indoor athletic complex. Other upgrades at San Marcos High include resurfacing the track and installing artificial turf on the baseball and softball fields. All of these projects have an estimated price tag of 30 (M) million dollars. Assistant Athletic Director Bryan Webb says the school district is actually saving money in the long run.

The overhaul will benefit every sport, but the biggest impact will be on the varsity football program. For the first time in 32 years, the Rattlers won't be relying on Texas State for their home field. Many students are pleased.
SB: Shannon Mathis "so it's really great"  (15 sec)
The baseball and softball fields will be re-turfed by Christmas, while the football complex will be ready for next season. Whether you bleed purple and white or not, all fans know "There's no place like home." For Bobcat Update, I'm Drew Bryant.
