CHS Field: Arsenic And Lancers

by The Editors on July 4, 2008

The football field at Carlsbad High School was condemned yesterday after soil tests showed elevated levels of arsenic six inches below the field, according to a story in the San Diego Union-Tribune.

The routine testing was part of the school’s planned expansion, which was to include the demolition of the football field and track at the end of this year’s football season. With the results of last week’s tests, however, orange fencing has been assembled around the field and the Lancers will be playing on a new surface earlier than they imagined.

Maybe that’s why other teams have such a hard time winning at Swede Krcmar Field.
