I totally agree with Dave Reardon that the University of Hawaii’s stadium should have been made available for high school championships playoffs during the past weekend since it was available (“It’s a shame state playoffs couldn’t have been played at Ching Complex,” Star-Advertiser, Nov. 27).
Allowing the use of the stadium would have served three purposes: Allow family and friends of the players to see the players in action; provide much-needed funds to the UH Athletics Department (through rental fees); and most important, allow our local kids to identify with our football program when they realize that playing for UH will allow their families and friends to see them in action here at home.
It’s a no-brainer, so let’s support our local kids next time.
