Hellas Redefines Royse City With Matrix® Turf For Softball & Baseball

ROYSE CITY, Texas, Feb. 8, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Hellas Construction introduced Matrix turf with Helix technology to Royse City Independent School District as the Bulldogs opened the 2019 season with new excitement on the diamonds. Matrix turf by Hellas precisely emulates natural grass and clay without the maintenance cost associated with both. Royse City chose Helix technology, which is twisted fibers that adds structure, strength and a better performing fiber for the entire turf system.

Lady Bulldogs Softball Head Coach Lee Kuyrkendall says he was super excited about getting on their new Hellas field on the first practice day mandated by the University Interscholastic League, which is the governing body of Texas public high schools. Despite cold and rainy conditions on day one of softball practice, Kuyrkendall added, "You get the benefit of not having to battle the elements of weather and that's why our administration was so excited about trying to save practices and games."

The softball and baseball fields in Royse City have alternating panels of Matrix turf. The state of Texas logo in center field for softball includes an intimidating bulldog. Royse City baseball coaches decided to go with a more traditional RC in cursive lettering in center field. Hellas and Royse City ISD came up with the field design and the Hellas manufacturing plants in Alabama and Georgia, along with the Hellas construction crews, made it a reality.

The monofilament fibers have a strong, natural look and feel, helping to provide the field with a long-life span. The Royse City softball players are enjoying the true roll on the softball field, which is important to consistency and preventing bad hops. Kuyrkendall says, "To know that you probably won't get that bad hop that hits you in the teeth or in the eye, will help an infielder with their fielding confidence."
