After designing the award-winning Harrison Central PK-12 School, SHP designed multiple athletic facilities to make Harrison Hills a district of choice for OHSAA state-wide tournament games. Fans, coaches, and athletes now enter Wagnar Field through an opening under the new pressbox that expands to provide spectacular views of the stadium, the campus, and the rolling hills of Harrison County.

"The new pressbox serves as a gateway to the stadium and campus. There is no other experience like it in Ohio."
– Ivan Vukcevich, SHP
