Traveled to Las Vegas this weekend for a @Premier_Tourney 13u baseball tournament in @cityofhenderson. Games cancelled on Saturday because of .19” rain and Sunday because of an additional .2” overnight. Easy response is “could’ve played on synthetic turf”. That’s BS. The majority fail to realize there is an alternative option. Invest in your fields and @FieldExperts and still save millions over the life of a field. @cityofhenderson could pay their staff competent wages and do everything else their fields needs to be maintained at a high level and save a minimum of $4 million over the life span of synthetic turf at this 9 field complex. The answer to bad fields isn’t synthetic turf, it’s turning your bad fields into quality fields.

Another city wide tourney in the Des Moines area and no games scheduled on HS synthetic turf baseball fields. Why do some @IHSAA members continue to buy into the fallacy that synthetic turf baseball field rentals can be an outside revenue source? @OHS_Bulldogs

Tournament games resume on @bryanrock_RBDA infields an hour after a 3/4” down pour moved through Rice Creek Fields in @cityofshoreview. Awesome complex and well maintained. This place makes you wonder why wasting money on synthetic turf baseball and softball fields is a thing.

Reason #328 that artificial surfaces suck. For a University with a Turfgrass/Sports Turf Program this is even more a slap in the face. The hypocrisy is tangible.
Strange occurrence in Blacksburg. Clemson had a guy slide into home and score, but in the process the turf batter’s box got completely flipped over. 😳

Coming to a field near you!!!! Why are we continuing to let @FieldTurf @AstroTurfUSA @SPRINTURF sell @MSHSL that these a good thing for student athletes and communities?

Free mound rebuild for Brandon and the @yacardinals squad. @DuraEdge blackstick table and landing turned out nice. Fresh @bulldogfe rubber and plate always a perfect addition.
