Along with the announcement, the district provided a rendering of the new field that showed an updated logo at the stadium’s 50-yard line.<\/p>\n

The district said the new field and new track will be in place for the 2026-27 school year.<\/p>\n

“Made possible in part by the Tull Foundation’s generous gift this fall, this upgrade will improve player safety, modernize the facility, and create a great new space for students, families, and fans to cheer on our Wildcats!” the district said.<\/p>\n

Last fall, East Allegheny was one of nine districts throughout western Pennsylvania<\/a> who were granted funds from the Tull Family Foundation as part the Team UP initiative that aimed to support high school athletics in under-resourced schools.<\/p>\n

East Allegheny received $250,000 from the foundation.<\/p>\n
