Open house set for the ‘Tiger Pen’

Assistant coach Brock Hanson throws batting practice at Prather Field, which has now added a new hitting facility along the right field foul line. When completed, the facility will be used by the PHS baseball and softball teams along with the Logan Junior High softball team.

Tours will be available for Princeton High School’s new indoor baseball and softball training facility on Saturday, Sept. 9 during the Homestead Festival weekend.

The facility located at Prather Field at 200 S. 5th St, called the “Tiger Pen” will be open to the public from 9 to 11 a.m. Young ballplayers can meet PHS varsity baseball players, hit in the batting cage and throw off the pitcher’s mound.
