Pros:
Next basketsNew renovation and now playable Has lots a potential
Cons:
Still needs some maintenance Tee boxes needed Only 9 holes
Other Thoughts:
Some work has been done. It's a work in progress 9 hole course with lots of potential. They did put in new baskets and vlean it up a lot but it's still needing some direction and tee pads. I like the ways it going and would love to see it get better

Other Thoughts:
This is a new (as of 2021) 9 hole layout that replaces the previous 18 hole course on the campus. New holes, new baskets and new signs, but this new course is still a bit of a mess.
- Hole #2 plays up an active driveway alongside a school building (with lots of windows)
- Several holes have narrow fairways that twist in two directions, so the only way to play them is to "dink and dunk" short throws to each corner
- When I visited, #5 faced up an abandoned trail into the woods, and had a rope across the fairway right in front of the tee with a "No Trespassing" sign
- #8 plays as a sharp dogleg down a narrow path bordering a field of chest high grasses. It's a flat hole, so there isn't much chance you'll see where your disc goes if it doesn't stay on the narrow "fairway"
- Several of the new tee signs had inaccurate depictions of the landscape or throwing lines
- There are four very long transitions between holes
I wonder if the designer has played much disc golf. Sure, seen from above the course is a nice loop around part of campus. But at ground level, there are poorly laid out holes and long walks.
