In 2025, Advanced Sports Group partnered with Kennesaw State University to complete a full natural-to-synthetic turf conversion at Fred Stillwell Stadium, home of the Division I KSU Owls baseball program.

Precision laser grading for a flawless, uniform base
Engineered stone base construction for long-term stability
Installation of Shaw Sports Turf’s premier B1K baseball system
Custom sewn-in KSU logos and branding elements for a true home-field identity
Why This Upgrade Matters
The conversion to the Shaw Sports Turf B1K system ensures:
Elite-level consistency across every square foot of the playing surface
Faster recovery after weather, allowing for more practices and games
Lower long-term maintenance costs
Improved safety and performance for student-athletes
A professional-grade look that enhances the stadium experience for players and fans
Serving the Next Generation of Owls
