"The Pasture"

From now on, all media references to this facility will refer to The Pasture. The name fits in many ways. Situated behind the Farmer's Market, it is in keeping with the agrarian nature of the neighborhood. The grass is cut regularly, but is nevertheless often too long for the excessively demanding coaching staff, which plaintively compares it to a hay field. And of course, it is the primary stomping ground for Hanover's Grade A soccer studs. The Pasture. It is almost reminiscent of Stanford University's nickname, The Farm.

The winning entry was submitted by sophomore ruminant Ryan O'Rourke, who will be suitably rewarded.
