Norfolk State University Installs Shaw Sports Turf

Norfolk, Va. -- Announced this summer, Norfolk State University decided to replace the natural grass field at William “Dick” Price Stadium with a Shaw Sports Turf synthetic turf, just in time for the 2018 season.

Originally installed in 1997, the NSU Spartans have been playing on a natural grass field for quite a while. Like most natural grass fields, maintenance can be time consuming and costly. When the school decided it was time to make some upgrades, they focused on the improvement of the field with the goal of expanding the use and longevity of William “Dick” Price Stadium.
