Cleveland Storm Breaks Ground on $3M Facility Upgrade

The Cleveland Storm, a 6A program based in Rio Rancho, New Mexico, has broken ground on a $3 million facility upgrade. The project aims to enhance the team's training and competition spaces, including a renovated weight room and expanded locker facilities. The upgrade comes after a 2025 season where the Storm finished with a 7-4 record, narrowly missing a state playoff spot. The facility upgrade is expected to boost recruiting efforts and competitiveness in the Rio Grande Valley, where the Storm competes against top-ranked programs like the Los Lunas Tigers and the Volcano Vista Hawks. The Storm's head coach, John Smith, says the upgrade will give the team a much-needed edge in the highly competitive 6A classification.
