Evergreen Playfield

When my third grade team played on Evergreen Playfield it seemed like the largest soccer field in the world. It was also heavily sloped and the dirt had huge amounts of shredded tire rubber to cut down the dust. In high school I scored my only Varsity goal on the South goal. So now, 33 years later, I get the opportunity to play a couple games on the field I grew up on; even taking a shot late in the game on the South goal ...

They have taken out some of the slope and stopped using the tire rubber ... so it is not as much of an advantage going in one direction, but the dust is horrible on a Summer evening ...
