The lines on the ONU field on the west side of the stadium are being erased since lacrosse season is over and the university will host several soccer camps on this field this summer.
Physical plant summer employees Chloe White-Hoffman adds a solvent to the white lines, while Andrew Trihaft runs a power washer over the artificial turf to eliminate the lacrosse markings.
Lines for soccer will be added soon because ONU will host 10 soccer camps and clinics this summer.
