Carcinogen Found At Lawrence Baseball Fields, Report Says

The chemical, found on the fields located at the middle and high school campus, prompted additional soil testing of all the fields in the district, the report said.

"We know it's not the whole field because we took multiple tests on that field and not every test came back positive. Only one area did, so now we want to know just how big that area is," business administrator Tom Eldridge told the website.
