Spring game is scheduled for April 16th, but don't expect it to be a normal game as this event is taking place around 11:30 and will be somewhat game situations...
They had a game on ESPN this year and the field had a new drainage system. It was the monsoon you are talking about and there was absolutely NO standing water. The footing looked good and the field stayed in good shape during the game. They said how much the pumps were capable of putting out and although I can't remember the numbers I would say that when Death Valley get a new playing surface it will be a great thing. Unless the Ath. Dept makes the announcement that it will be the latest state of the art drainage system then who knows what we get.
