Strange schedule for Watterson. So far in their first 7 games, they have had only 1 home game. Their last 3 games are at home however.

Yeah. But again, they seem like they're happy to travel, because they don't play any of their games on campus. They say there isn't enough parking to play their games at "home". Maybe the stadium isn't big enough, either. I forget where they play their home games, but they aren't at "home".
But regardless of where the games are played, you're right that it's weird that they'd play 6 of 7 games on the road, and then the last 3 at home. I wonder how the schedules are made.

they are tucked into a neighborhood not too far from OSU's campus so I can see parking being an issue

They play their “home” games at Ohio Dominican University. Nice facility but too small for big games like the upcoming DeSales game & parking/traffic are a nightmare.

They have a nice field right next to the high school school that they use for soccer, field hockey, lacrosse, JV & freshman football but there isn’t enough parking or seating to host a varsity football game. Rumors are they’ve had plans in the past to buy additional property around the field, including a row of businesses right on High Street, to address these issues but the City of Columbus shoots down everything they propose. I don’t think the people in the neighborhood want the associated traffic but it would be like 5-8 Fridays a year. Not sure why the diocese made sure DeSales & St. Charles had plenty of land for their facilities but Watterson, Hartley & to lesser extent Ready were given postage stamp sized parcels to work with.
