It's official... after 9 seasons playing at Brooks Stadium in Paducah, KY the OVC Tournament will relocate to Pringles Stadium in Jackson, TN. The OVC agreed to a three year deal beginning 2010.
The tournament will be held May 26-30 next year. Pringles Park is the home of the West Tenn Diamond Jaxx (AA affiliate of the Seattle Mariners). Pringles Park opened in 1998 and seats 6,000.
In an earlier entry I suggested the OVC needed to move on to a "big-boy"
venue. I think it was time for a change.
I'm sure Pringles Park is a top rate facilility and will be a good fit for the tournament.

To be selfish I wish the OVC would have kept it closer to Paducah, KY...Like Marion, IL.
