Biddle Track is Improved

Tue., Aug. 1, 1989

The track on Biddle field was improved before the start of the school year of 1989. Rather than keeping their Tartan track surface, Dickinson opted for a newer material, Versaturf-360.  This new material, made of rubber and latex, was placed over-top of the old material on the track. This new surface, according to Dr. Les Poolman, was on tracks all across the country and that it was a "super track for training."
