Baldwin ? Culver-Stockton will be the foe for Baker University’s last home football game on a grass surface.

Kickoff will be at 1 p.m. today at Liston Stadium.

Construction of an artificial turf football field is part of approximately $2 million in athletic department renovations scheduled to begin in a few weeks. The track also will be refurbished with a new surface and eight lanes.

The new turf will feature synthetic grass on top of a deep layer of rubber pellets.

“We will be able to practice at a more-than-adequate facility and not miss practice time because of weather concerns,” BU coach Mike Grossner said.

Other upgrades include paved parking lots on the northeast and southwest corners of Fremont at Second streets.

Baker, coming off a 44-29 loss to Southern Oregon, is looking for its first home victory of the season. The Wildcats (2-7 overall, 2-6 Heart of America Athletic Conference) have lost six straight at home dating to last season.

Culver-Stockton (3-6, 3-6) blanked Avila 30-0 last week to snap a four-game losing streak. Baker will close the season next week at Lindenwood in St. Charles, Mo.
