Santa Ana High School Athletic Director Brian Lillie indicated that there would be some improvements to Santa Ana Stadium.

The most noticable one is the installation of a new turf, which will be tested for the first time Thursday night when Santa Ana hosts Long Beach Millikan in a non-league game.

The stadium is also the home site for Mater Dei football and Santa Ana College. Mater Dei will play West at the stadium Friday night at 7.
