Does the cost of admission come with a pair of sunglasses? Man that is bright. 

I can't wait to see Ludlow come out in all red.

Looks great in pics, and even better in person! 

No problem with colored turf once I got over the thought my TV was going out. Thinking back to the first game I saw at Boise St. That was a head rush for a while.

Happy for the kids. They’ve deserved this for a long time. Think this will help bring an upward trend to Ludlow.

LOL!  I know exactly what you mean.  I actually played on that field in their innagural season and it was so blue that birds that it was water!  Needless to say there were a lot of dead birds on it that year.  Ludlow's field looks absolutely great in my opinion and wish them the best of luck this season!

I put this in the same category of opening the box of your new uniforms.

You either love them or hate them, but you are stuck with them either way for the next five years.  The bright red does seem extreme, but might be really neat under the Friday Night Lights.  We will find out.  Our Brossart Mustangs are scheduled back in Ludlow again this season.

You can’t tell me that isn’t one of the better looking stadiums now. Looks awesome. 

Like it, definitely different but uniquely nice looking. It will be interesting seeing it under the lights for sure!

From The Motz Group:

Ludlow Independent Schools red turf field is surely one-of-a-kind—and built to handle more than just game days. Sitting in a flood plain, the school needed an infill that wouldn’t float, shift, or become an extra maintenance nightmare after a major weather event. That’s why they chose Envirofill. It’s heavy enough to stay put, low-maintenance, and infused with Microban for antimicrobial protection—an added layer of reassurance when the field needs to be cleaned and restored.

After a recent flood left the entire field underwater, our Motz365 experts teamed up with the Ludlow Fire Department to get it back in shape. Envirofill held strong, and the field is looking just as sharp as the day it was installed.

A unique field, a strong partnership, and one more reminder that What’s In Your Turf Matters®.

That's awesome to hear.  I was wondering how the fill would actually hold up under flood conditions.

I thought the same thing when I read it and knew I needed to share it with everyone.

We appreciate it.  I still hate the surface because of how hard it is, but this is good for Ludlow as the school and community.

I didn't realize that, is the Ludlow surface harder than the surfaces at other schools?
