I think Mammoth does a lot of work in state. I think they did my high school field a few years back. Too bad they suck.

They do work throughout the Midwest and are big with Div 2 schools.  I know they are taking on some new adventures like another Top Golf/Pickle Ball knock off.  They want to build 20+ nationwide.

For those that haven't seen it, they're installing the new fields

K-State moved pretty quick on this, they must not have been at all pleased with the Field Turf, which as mentioned had only been in for 3 years in all 3 facilities . . . well short of the usual life expectancy.

Kinda wild we went from like never replacing the turf to now we do it almost as an afterthought. I get the shittiness of it but more speaking to how much more $$ we have to play with.

Whenever we tear out our almost-new turf to replace it with the current top-of-the-line, I feel like we should donate the old stuff to one of the poors like KU or UMASS.

Are they going to replace the baseball field as well?

Sure, but I would hope more like MHS iyam

I have not heard.  FieldTurf markets two types for baseball based on the desired play ability.

KU needs to at least have a functional stadium first before we start donating fields to them. We've already given them a ton of money to build the damn thing and they're still not getting it done.

Now that the basketball team sucks I bet they turn into a football school and get the other half of the stadium done within the next decade
