That's OK, you will find a spot. Peanut vendors get preferred parking.

Parking should not be an issue as only roughly 3,000 fans will be allowed to attend. (assuming the SCHSL abides by the 25% capacity rule). So, there will be about half of normal attendance for a 50% full regular season game. Also, with the games happening on Friday night and Saturday, the school parking lots should be empty.

If they can't have them at Willy B then I think these 2 sites are pretty good alternatives to have the State Title Games at.

GO BEAUFORT EAGLES!!!!

It's been a long time since I was at Spring Valley. We played Ridge View in the second? round of the playoffs and I saw one of the most heartbreaking interceptions I've ever seen. Our QB zipped a ball at the WR and it was tipped, bounced off his hands and to a defender laying on his back.

Published capacity of each stadium:
Charlie W. Johnson Stadium at Benedict College: 11,000. 25% = 2,750
Harry Parone stadium at Spring Valley HS: 12,000. 25% = 3,000

Dorman's capacity looks to be the largest for any HS in the state at 15,200.
