ABILENE – For a son of Abilene, P.E. Shotwell Stadium has always held a special place in my heart.

It was never the best. It was never the biggest. It certainly didn't boast many of the most modern amenities. But it was our stadium. It's where we went on Friday nights to watch the Eagles or Cougars and then on Saturday to watch the Wildcats.

I don't remember the first time I saw a game in the stadium, but I remember a lot of the games I watched in the 57-year-old venue.
