Will be pretty nice and have a capacity of 5,000.

Carver High is located in the 9th Ward of NOLA ....it was totally decimated during Hurricane Katrina taking 12 ft of water.

The 9th Ward is also home to some of the scariest gangs in the nation. You don't want to fuck around down there too much. In fact, if you don't have any business in the 9th Ward it's best to stay out of there.

Anyways, they're hoping this new stadium and some other projects will bring a sense of community to what really is a depressed area of NOLA.

As far as the actual football team this past season they went 7-4 and ranked 158th in Louisiana per MaxPreps.

Back in the day Carver was pretty decent, actually beat John Curtis a couple times. Hall of Famer Marshall Faulk prepped there.

9th Ward Stadium

As I was reading this I kept thinking there was someone famous who came out of there. At first I was thinking a rapper, but then I saw Marshall Faulk and remembered that's who it was.  Crazy dangerous down there.
