Twitter account (@ BroRiceWarriors ) tweeted an image on Dec . 29 of what the potential lacrosse / soccer and football fields would look like with the help of donors and fundraising opportunities . The debate sparked up when , on Ambrose Field , it only appeared to render a soccer field , not a lacrosse field , for which it was originally named ( after former Coach Ambrose ).
There was also some tension about the absence of stands in the rendering , which many people have talked about over the past few years . Reidy addressed this issue with poise and confidence , stating that the fields are the “ front porch ” of Brother Rice . He elaborated that many potential Warriors ; first Rice experience comes at a football , lacrosse , or soccer game , and how important it is to make that moment one to remember and really attract them to the school and community . He also mentioned that the fields

All the people out there who think Valentine ’ s Day has romantic significance need to take a hard look at the so-called “ symbol ” of your precious holiday . Someone needs to take that “ baby ,” lock him up far away and throw the key into the Pacific Ocean . That way , Americans can sleep well at night , knowing that “ thing ” isn ’ t roaming the earth .

There is no logic to this creation , and it should absolutely not be allowed to poison the minds of America ’ s youth .

I ’ m not about to dance around the fact that I got extremely fired up when he referred to the fields as the “ front porch ” of Brother Rice , because it is so true .
Although I was always set on becoming a Warrior , I can speak on behalf of my friends and family who are a part the community when they say that their first true “ Rice experience ” came at a sporting event .
In fifth grade , 2011 , I remember coming to the Rice vs . De La Salle football game at Fracassa Field , when they brought in extra bleachers for the fans and , more importantly , the Goon Squad . The atmosphere was pure electricity .
I also remember the fact that , of the many friends I was with that day , 95 percent of us ended up at Brother Rice for high school .
Brotherhood is something that Rice does a tremendous job of , and the chemistry among our student body is unmatched . This is something parents should consider when it comes to where to send their sons to high school .
