Whether we like it or not, money is a big issue for most schools. The turf is a one time cost of about 1 million that will last 15 years at least (or so they say). You could buy alot of sand, dirt, paint/chalk, and diamond dry for that money but you have to factor in the labor costs. In the long run it's probably cheaper for the turf. I love a grass field, but I'm glad I don't have to maintain it anymore. My favorite grass field is USM, it is usually in awesome shape.

somehow for years on years they managed to have grass fields. i undertand it may be cheaper, but you can sell the "money is such a huge issue" bs to someone else.
