It's technically the property of Orange Coast College, but there's a reason why the CIF perpetually schedules championship games at LeBard Stadium, and it's not just because of the massive stands or that Edison High calls it home field: LeBard is as close to a university football experience as we'll get, a stadium seemingly carved into a hill, just off a major road (Fairview) yet isolated enough from the rest of civilization come kickoff time that spectators feel the world has truly stopped for this game. Add the ivy-colored walls on the outside, and Friday night lights don't get better than this.
