I am a Wayne fan. Elder just simply out played Wayne. I however was not impressed with THE PIT. Seating is horrible, bathrooms were disgusting,& don’t even start on the parking. No parking unless you wanted to pay $10 to another school to use their lot..IMO if you are going to build a stadium that looks like that & boast about it at least build a parking lot to hold everyone..
