If you're attending the IHSA Baseball State Tournament in Joliet, please see the below message concerning possible construction delays: Downtown Joliet is going through construction on several main streets. If you could, please send out a message to any fans to leave an ample amount of time to get to the Stadium for the Highland games on Friday and Saturday. Games are expected to start as scheduled and we would hate for anyone to miss any part of the games. Go Bulldogs! 🐾
