Jefferson College Fieldhouse floor removal uncovers a bit of history

(Hillsboro) Jefferson College is currently going through the process of replacing the wood floor at the fieldhouse for the first time since its construction in 1968. Director of Marketing and Public Relations at the college, Roger Barrentine says while in the process of tearing up the floor, a bit of history was found underneath.

Barrentine says they might leave something behind when the new floor goes in.

Barrentine says they plan to frame the newspaper clipping and hang it in the Jefferson College fieldhouse as a display for all to see. The work to replace and lay down the new floor should be completed by the time fall athletics begin in August.
