“We needed to catch up off the field,” Eastern athletic director Bill Chaves said. “We’re a top-10 program nationally (on the field), and I feel like it’s my job to make sure that we’re doing everything else in a top-10 fashion.
“And although we may not be there right now, we have a vision to be top 10 in everything we do,” said Chaves, who foresees a red soccer field and a red basketball court, too.
“That’s on the radar screen,” Chaves said. “I’m not kidding.”
There's also been some talk amongst local business interests to paint Elm Street and whatever the name is for the diagonal that cuts off of it that parallels the campus all the way to Main, tying downtown with the U.
