The sports Complex at 1401 Elmhurst Lane should be named Manor Mustang Sports Complex - Home of the WWHS Presidents. The remaining areas should be named: Football field -Ace Parker, Baseball field: Jimmy Williford, Track: Latasha Collander-Lashawn Merrit.
Why is this important?
The Portsmouth School Board is poised to name the football field at the original site of Manor High School. The Board has the potential to name individual sporting areas and the entire complex rather than asking several groups to unnecessarily battle over one name for the football field. I am calling on all citizens affiliated with Portsmouth Public Schools to support this effort that will recognize Portsmouth's past, present and future without pitting its citizens against one another.
