STRUTHERS — The east stands of Struthers High School Football Stadium had stood since the Great Depression but started coming down Wednesday.

The demolition is the beginning of Phase I of the stadium renovation project. The board of education on June 26 awarded contracts totaling $285,603 for the first phase.

The deadline for completing the project is Aug. 22 — two days before the first home football game.
