Vandals Tear Up Football Pitch: The Gibbons soccer field recently suffered from vandalism.
Sometime between Sunday (Jun.11) and Monday, the soccer pitch was driven on while wet, causing significant damage to the grass.

“It ticks me off that some people don’t have any respect for property,” added Harris.
