University of Houston Baseball Turns to FieldTurf DoublePlay for Better Baseball-Specific Playability
Houston, TX, January 05, 2014 --(PR.com)-- The University of Houston Baseball team has selected FieldTurf for Cougar Field. The Cougars have chosen to install ‘FieldTurf DoublePlay’, the most innovative baseball-specific turf system in the industry.
The DoublePlay product line is designed to be completely customizable to the needs of baseball clients by controlling the speed and pace of the baseball through innovative fiber and infill technology. Such customization allows for all baseball programs to get the field they want.
“FieldTurf was by far the best option for our baseball program,” said University of Houston Deputy Athletics Director Darren Dunn. “When we researched various turf companies it became apparent very quickly that FieldTurf stood out from the rest. FieldTurf’s baseball-specific product will be a great fit for our student athletes.”
“The FieldTurf DoublePlay baseball system plays more like a natural ball field than anything else we have seen,” said Houston Head Baseball Coach Todd Whitting. “From a product and company standpoint, FieldTurf is the right choice for us.”
“Installing our DoublePlay turf system for University of Houston Baseball is certainly a proud moment for us,” said FieldTurf President Eric Daliere. “Cougar Field’s new turf was designed to provide long-lasting and proper baseball-specific performance.”
With over 40 game fields currently in use at the NCAA D-1 level for baseball, the Cougars join an impressive list of baseball teams that play and/or practice on FieldTurf DoublePlay systems such as Oregon State University, Rutgers University, University of Illinois, Kent State University, University of Louisville and the University of Oregon, to name a few.
