Turf fields are easier to maintain, they are playable in wet weather. The technology has gotten much better over the years. Grass is better IMO, the downfall is maintenance, not all grass fields are the same or maintained the same. Wet and cold weather is a problem. Most schools do not over seed their fields, so you have a brown field with painted dirt later in the fall. If you have ever played in the mud on a cold night, well you will remember it. I do. As far as early turf days, playing at Sam Houston, you might as well have been playing in the parking lot. IMO there are more ACL, high ankle sprain and turf toe injuries today with turf, than a player would have from playing on a well maintained grass field. It's a toss up economically, however you do see more NFL and College teams reverting back to grass. The turf technology will get better, just don't know how close the turf manufacturers can get to REAL grass. -

When you talk about teams like Vidor, Lumberton & HJ competing for a playoff spot, it tells you how weak the district really is this year. -
A good grass field is the best but good grass fields are nearly impossible to find. At a high school level you will never play on two grass fields that are equal, and hardly ever a truly good (level, flat, good grass, well maintained) grass field. Especially at smaller schools where you are playing on weeds, dirt spots, crawfish holes, and uneven surface. Turf is best for high school is provides the most consistency across the board. Grass is better at higher levels because it can be maintained to the proper standard. -

If it is so easy, why did it take Elon to do it?
