That's surface temps, the air temps just above the surface are barely higher than natural turf.

One of the factors in FIFA certification is how it scores in Skin abrasions tests (and a myriad of other tests) that are ISO certified.

These are not cheap artificial grass fields that indoor soccer complexes etc. etc. throw down.

Make sure K-State checks the "Do you want a top layer of a lighter-colored material fill?" when they place their order.  #notthatbigofadeal

Since this has gotten a little silly.

My preference as a K-State observer would be that K-State needs to commit to a highly maintained grass game surface that lasts the entire season.   If they cannot guarantee that, than they should invest in a top of the line artificial grass surface for soccer.

I hope your ladies have to play on K2.  I would snicker a little to myself were that the case.

LOL, I didn't realize soccer players were such babies.   I was at a trade show awhile back and FieldTurf had a Demo area, their latest generation stuff was amazing, and even when I first saw it years back it was like walking on grass.

Walking on grass is pretty much soccer so let's close up shop on this debate.

Walks hand-in-hand with your stalker-ish ways.

Sad, and a little scary.

How on earth didn't you realize this?

We should install buffalo grass and repair it annually. Anything more is good money after bad.
