Re: 2014 Greater DC Regional
Visiting my former team today, the space definitely seems cramped. It feels tight and not easy to move at all. Seating isn't awful, but some views are bad and seeing the board is an issue. Also the proximity of the field to the audience is an issue from what I've seen. There were matches where high speed thrown balls ended in the stands hitting people.


I do love that it's just a nice ride down Rt 123 for me though.

Siegel Center at VCU I believe is bigger than the Patriot Center, but pits could be reworked.
