[Ponte Alto] Recruiting at Colleges

[Drogo Dragonara]

We used to have a priactice at Mason a number of years ago.  It was in the
gym so we didn't get too many on-lookers.  Also we didn't get a lot of
practice in when the Redskinetts were practicing there too.

If we could find a slightly more public place at Mason that would be good.
