The renaming of Marshall County High School's baseball field is now complete as it will now be known as Preston Cope Field.

Cope was one of two students killed in the shooting at the school in January 2018. 

A ceremony was held in August to rename the field in honor of Cope. On Tuesday that process was finished as a sign with his name was placed above the scoreboard at the field. 

In a message on social media the school said; "The renaming of the MCHS baseball field is complete! What an amazing tribute to such a remarkable young man! We are so thankful for CFSB and their continued support of Marshall County Schools!"
