Northridge HS to begin sports complex project

MIDDLEBURY, Ind. - When the 2019 high school football season begins in August, the Northridge Raiders will once again play their home games on the field by their middle school. However, a project will be underway to build a new stadium set to be complete for the 2020 season.

That football stadium is one phase of a newly-announced project to revamp the outdoor athletics facilities at Northridge. That also includes upgrades for the baseball and softball fields. All of those will include a transition to field turf, allowing for more use.

The announced project comes with the help of a $250,000 commitment from Goshen-based Interra Credit Union, which has a branch in Middlebury. That will come in the form of $50,000 per year for five years, as Northridge will name the football facility "Interra Field."

A ceremony to break ground on construction will take place on July 16.
