Upgrades May Be Coming Soon to Saratoga Athletic Facilities

SARATOGA SPRINGS — Depending on how district residents vote on May 20, some Saratoga school athletic facilities may soon get facelifts.

Part of the $142.8 million Legacy 2025 Capital Project referendum includes resurfacing the track and installing turf on the high school softball diamond.

“The thing that I have in my mind more than anything is safety concerns for the track,” said Boys Track Coach Chris Conley in a video posted by the district. “There’s been parts of it that have been starting to peel up and those areas start to become very unsafe; tripping hazards, slipping on it. It’s really not conducive to running very smart. If we could get it resurfaced so that it’s safe, that would be awesome.”

Varsity Softball Coach Geoff Loiacono said that a turf infield would make the high school softball field “playable all the time” because weather conditions wouldn’t affect it.
