Cardinal Stadium Turf Replacement underway

Looked to me like they were stealing it

I would love to have the midfield logo

MB Fan might know if there is some way to buy it
 
How many years did they get out of it?
Pretty sure we started playing on it in 2007 so we got ten years use.

I remember playing on the "New Field" back in 1969, was amazed it actually had grass on it, the old Hatten Field was pretty sad :)

The new turf they lay down is fantastic. I've been to three fields with the latest, that were laid down last year. Going to look great.
 
Will it look any different or are they basically just replacing a worn out carpet? Did they get Mercy to pay to have their logo put on it like in C-Town?

If the concept is finalized it will have Columbia blue end zones with alternating shades of green turf every ten yards.

That looks really nice, I like the columbia blue end zone. I saw a concept of the Carthage turf that was really cool, somewhat like what you've got there except with the words over a cool diamond pattern and in a collegiate like font. For whatever reason that is not the design that ended up on the field. The design they used looks like maybe they just tasked the architect to draw up something. They'll have a nice looking field, but I do wish they had gone with the other concept I saw as it had a lot more character.

Hopefully WC will stick with that design you've got there.

Leave it to a Carthage "fan" to complain about a $10 million facility. SMH

Not really a complaint, just saying that I wished they would have gone with a concept I saw early on, basically a blue version of the Mizzou turf. It would have been really neat, but that's not what they went with.

It's going to be among the best facilities in the area regardless of my personal preference on which turf print they used.

It will be well deserved, you guys really do have some nice facilities over there, was in the highs school last year for a basketball game and that is a nice place.
 
We dlivered a forklift to Card Stadium for two rolls of the old turf to be loaded and taken to a new crossfit gym going in in Joplin. It was gone. Two 15 foot long 3 foot in diameter rolls, just gone...
