With Sale of Old Turf Now Underway, New Red Field Slated to be Installed Week of July 20

The red glow that has been missing in Cheney, Wash., since May will return this month. And fans will get a chance to purchase some of the original red turf as well. Workers are hopeful to begin as early as July 21 a three-week process of installing the second generation of red turf at Eastern Washington University's Roos Field. The original red turf at "The Inferno" was installed in 2010, and taken out in May in preparation for its replacement.
