Paterson residents are pushing for the renovation of a high school football field that's such a mess its nickname is 'the Swamp.'
The residents say the field at Paterson Catholic High School is more like a mud hole. The Cougars have even been forced to play some home games at other schools after bad rain.
"It's time to really make it what it should be," says Rev. Kenneth Clayton, a concerned alum.
Despite the mud, the consistently successful Cougars have racked up six championships in the past 10 years.
