LA Tech Baseball & Softball Will Compete On FieldTurf In 2021
Last April, Louisiana Tech University unfortunately had their Softball, Baseball and Soccer fields decimated by a tornado incident. After careful consideration, officials decided the NEW FieldTurf DoublePlay and TripleThreat Series would be the ideal choice for J.C. Love Field at Pat Patterson Park (Baseball) and Lady Techster Softball Complex (Softball). Construction is planned to be completed for the 2021 baseball and softball seasons. The move is a significant investment for the program and commitment to its student-athletes. The Bulldog coaches are excited to bring the leading FieldTurf systems to their athletic facilities.
“We are extremely excited to partner with FieldTurf for our playing surface in the new ball park. Our new home will include the best player development facility in Conference USA as well as top-tier playing and practice surfaces. FieldTurf’s reputation around the college and professional baseball industry is second to none.” - Lane Burroughs, Baseball Coach
“The partnership with FieldTurf will only enhance our new facility. Throughout the process of selecting the company that would provide the playing surface, our coaching staff felt comfortable and confident that FieldTurf would deliver a state-of-the-art product. This is just one more aspect that makes this softball complex the premier one in Conference USA and one of the best in our region.” – Maria Winn, Softball Coach
