Challenges
The DeSoto County High School athletic facilities sustained significant storm damage to their Softball, Baseball and Football venues
from Hurricane Ian which necessitated replacement and upgrade of their lighting systems.
The school officials sought to replace their existing lighting with the most energy-efficient and sustainable lighting system available
to reduce energy and maintenance costs while also providing a long-term lighting solution to meet their current and future needs.
The installation schedule of DeSoto HS Softball and Baseball facility lighting was also an important challenge given the pending start
of their interscholastic competitive seasons.
