War Memorial Stadium

I walked for a total of 40:41 through War Memorial Park and around War Memorial Stadium late this morning before I watched Greenwood beat the fuck out of Benton in the Class 6A state championship football game.

PARAGRAPHS OF THE DAY

A day after severe weather postponed high school football playoff games across Arkansas, there was nothing to slow down high-powered offenses Saturday except defensive effort, and the Greenwood Bulldogs brought it.

War Memorial Stadium was a bowl of room-temperature sunshine throughout Greenwood’s 45-14 victory over the Benton Panthers in the Class 6A state championship game in Little Rock. Though no one missed Greenwood’s typical display of offensive excellence, its defense shone, too.
