Enquirer staff and news services

        After installing a new playing field at the Hamilton County Fairgrounds, and working on the property for weeks, Cincinnati's professional soccer team can officially call it home.

        Hamilton County commissioners approved a 10-year lease on Wednesday between the Cincinnati Riverhawks and the county's Agriculture Department.

        The lease allows the Riverhawks to play its home games, hold soccer clinics, car shows and other events on the property. The team's season starts in two weeks.
