Baseball welcomes new AstroTurf system to Jim and Bettie Smith Stadium

App State’s new baseball turf system replaced the original system that had been in use at Jim and Bettie Smith Stadium since it opened in 2007. “It’s a great product,” head coach Kermit Smith said.

The Mountaineer baseball program has a new addition: an all-new AstroTurf Diamond Series RBI System. The new turf replaces the FieldTurf system in use since Jim and Bettie Smith Stadium opened in 2007.

“It’s going to be something not only that our baseball program is extremely proud of, but it’s going to be something that our entire athletic department and university are proud of,” head coach Kermit Smith said.
