Farewell and hello
Ok, what a game and what an entire existence the East Gym has had. And it came to an end Tuesday night.
Not to be callous, but it's about time.
It's about time HSU got a gym worthy of its program. The East Gym has plenty of history, lore, and all the other nice things you say about old stuff, but honestly, with the entire Jacks athletics program looking to step into the next generation, a new facility fits perfectly with those plans.
Just think of the time — and money — you'll get to spend ooh-aahing at the bells and whistles the new gym offers. Sunsets will glow through the windows, and in all likelihood, wins will continue to light up the scoreboard. The real thought, though, is that recruits and dollars will continue and begin flowing through the doors.
Well, in order for that to happen, HSU had to make a big step and it did. It's about time.
