[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hardy should just use Ellington field. It is good enough for Georgetown University yet somehow beneath Hardy.[/quote] Ellington controls Ellington field. Schools/teams can't just show up and play. Georgetown has a long standing agreement with Ellington to use the field at certain times. From what I understand, Ellington didn't really want to manage the field. It didn't want to pick & choose among applicants, it didn't want to invest in the field's infrastructure, and it didn't want to manage scheduling. It was content to let the field sit empty, except when the DESA marching band has practice after school. Lots of different entities approached Ellington over the years to reserve the field but Ellington basically just never responded. [/quote] Because DESA has basically incompetent management. Isn’t that what the DC Auditor concluded?[/quote]
