Banning High will host a stadium dedication for its revamped football field on Thursday at 5 p.m. in an event sponsored by the L.A. Unified School District.

"Many alumni will be present, and it's going to be a big deal," legendary coach Chris Ferragam said.

If history teaches us anything, it's that Banning knows how to throw a party.

If you happen to pass upon Banning, the field is now equipped with field turf and new visiting stands have been installed, transforming Banning's home field from laughingstock to one of the best in the South Bay.

Banning opens its season on Friday in a 7 p.m. game against Los Angeles High in what should be a romp in the opener. RB Josh Limosnero returns, and Ferragamo loves his defense.

Narbonne and Palos Verdes will also open new fields this season.
