Project Summary
Keystone Sports Construction recently completed a stadium synthetic turf field replacement at La Salle College High School in Wyndmoor, Pennsylvania.
The Client
Founded in 1858, La Salle College High School is an independent Catholic college preparatory school in Wyndmoor, Pennsylvania. Its educational tradition is rooted in Saint John Baptist de La Salle and the De La Salle Christian Brothers.
The Challenge
Replacing the playing surface required temporary protection for the existing track and inspection of the field’s anchoring components. The new turf incorporated markings for football, soccer, and men’s lacrosse.
Construction Process
The project was initiated with the removal and disposal of existing turf, along with reclaiming and recycling the existing infill. Keystone then installed the SpikeZone Pro synthetic turf system with thatch, reused the recovered infill, and supplied supplemental rubber infill.
