“We’ve got an excellent field – our athletes love it. It’s a whole different generation of turf than its predecessor. More realistic, more grass like. I’ve even been asked if it’s grass!" Dave Lewis, Athletic Director

Dave Lewis, Athletic Director, Reynoldsburg High School, Reynoldsburg, Ohio:

“We’ve got an excellent field – our athletes love it. It’s a whole different generation of turf than its predecessor. More realistic, more grass like. I’ve even been asked if it’s grass!

“Sports Construction Group did a great job installing it. They were extremely professional, they worked long days to meet a very aggressive deadline and they worked very well with everyone involved in the project.”

Tim Bockbrader, Landscape Architect, The EDGE Group, which handled design and documentation of the field:

“It was a good project from start to finish – and one of the shortest timeframes we’ve followed on a project like this.

“The professionalism on the installation was impressive. I’ve never come across that level of knowledge and expertise before – it was very helpful. SCG bent over backward to make the client happy and the project better. We would welcome the opportunity to work with SCG again. The end product looks fantastic.”

Mark Larrimer, Associate/Civil Engineer for Moody.Nolan, Inc., which coordinated with The Edge Group on track and field site design:

“All feedback we’ve been given on the project has been positive. It was a very smooth, well coordinated project – we had a very good working relationship with SCG on the job. We’d love to work with them again.”
