De La Salle High School Selects AstroTurf® RootZone® GT-B Mono for Sustainable Field Upgrade

CONCORD, Calif., Sept. 30, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- De La Salle High School, a program celebrated for its excellence on the field, is making a bold investment in its future with the installation of AstroTurf® RootZone® GT-B Mono 60oz 2", a turf system recognized by the USDA BioPreferred® Program for its renewable content. This project reflects the school's ongoing commitment to providing its athletes with state-of-the-art facilities that also support a healthier environment. 

The GT-B Mono system combines advanced monofilament fibers for a realistic look and feel with AstroTurf's patented RootZone® infill stabilization technology. The result is a surface that delivers reliable footing, consistent ball performance, and reduced maintenance needs while integrating plant-based materials to help lower the facility's environmental impact. 

"The quality and service provided by AstroTurf fields have been outstanding. The durability and performance of the surface not only elevate the level of play but also provide our student-athletes with a safe, consistent, and professional-grade environment every single day. Their product has become an invaluable part of our program, helping our athletes train and compete at their very best." said Vice President for Athletics, Leo Lopez.

"We're grateful to partner with forward-thinking clients who share our vision. When schools and communities choose USDA BioPreferred certified systems, they're investing in something bigger than a game," said Dom Berarducci of AstroTurf.

At De La Salle, the new surface will serve as the home for practices, competitions, and community events, offering athletes a safe, high-performance field that stands up to the demands of year-round use.
