Armstrong County Hosting a Marquee Sporting Event?

A lot has been made about sell-out crowds at PIAA and WPIAL basketball playoff games. We’ll probably see another packed house at Saturday’s Cager Classic. Armstrong County rarely hosts neutral site playoff games for two reasons; first we’re not centrally located in the WPIAL, secondly we have no large venues. Other factors such as no field turf fields and lack of hotel space hurts. There are plenty of soccer tournaments, but we any such complex capable of hosting those. While I believe there is a market for a the right sporting event, but as of now the Freeport Baseball Invitational and the occasional Little League Section Tournament and fishing contest is the best I see us hosting for a long time.
