Coach Gidge’s Gym at Vermilion Catholic gets needed upgrades

Wed, 05/29/2024 - 10:00am

There would be one more hurdle to clear, and the solution kept the old floor in place.
“We had rescheduled it for March 1st, once basketball was over,” explained VC Athletic Director Kim Guidry. “The next problem was they had asbestos underneath so that they couldn’t pick up the floor. The solution was to come on top of the floor.”
