Logan,

There's not a whole lot there that couldn't be easily be reproduced once you
setup a template to mimic the site. Importing a site in Fusion really isn't
the best way to recreate a new site in Fusion. Additionally a lot of the
data is in PDF format.

I'd just import the entire site into a folder on your local development
machine using a free program like this program: HTTrack Website Copier
( http://www.httrack.com/ ). You would have all of the assets of the site
(pdf's, images, etc) locally at your disposal to recreate the site from a
clean slate using a new Fusion project file.

My $.02

I agree with toC. That page is really ugly. It has basic code validation
errors (see the link) "no document type declaration on the first line."
http://validator.w3.org/check?verbos...2higear.com%2F

<shaking head> Built with Absolutely Positioned Divisions (aka layers in DW)
which is the kiss of death! Sadly, whoever built this masterpiece doesn't
have a clue about basic web design concepts. </shaking head>

If you're being asked to update this, run, run as fast as you can. If
you're planning to build a new site in NOF anyway, do yourself a huge favor
and start from scratch.

I also agree.

Regardless of any coding issues, it's a pig-ugly site and rebuilding
from scratch (not too hard, it's not a huge site) gives you the chance
to build a site that looks as dynamic as the sport it represents.
