National shame
Article by January 30, 2021
Former national track and field athlete Ronald Boyce has called on local authorities to invest and fix the national stadium which he has described as a national embarrassment.
Boyce who retired two years ago after 24-years of service as head coach of Missouri State University and 30 years total coaching on the National Collegiate Athletic Association circuit, said this matter surrounding the dilapidated state of the 51-year-old Stadium needed to be addressed.
“It is embarrassing and it is such a necessity not just for track and field because football also plays there as well. Unfortunately, cycling is there and it needs to be moved because nobody cycles on a track that big anymore. Everything is indoors with only two hundred meters, that track (stadium) is about five hundred meters.
