LAS CRUCES - Plans to name the playing field at the Field of Dreams in honor of legendary coach Jim Bradley have been sidelined for the time being.

In a presentation Tuesday to the Las Cruces Public Schools Board of Education, Superintendent Stan Rounds said the prospect presents a number of challenges, including securing funding for appropriate signage and concerns he’s heard from students and community members that it disproportionately favors a single school, have led him to explore other options.

I wanted to especially thank Kyle Henderson who has been awesome in not only getting my son recognized but all the kids that play and excel in NM high school sports. I also want to thank some on here who have advocated, believed, and helped Miles in his journey to succeed and get the chance of living the dream.

OK in Mansfield every strip center has a donut shop and they are all dang good. I go to Santa Fe and Albuquerque and there may be 4-5 donut shops total in both towns. We have 10 total. Why are donuts not popular in Northern NM
