The Citadel is ready to install artificial turf at Johnson Hagood Stadium, with the new surface slated to be finished by the end of April.
The synthetic surface, made by Sporturf, will cost $1.5 million and is being paid for by a donor, athletic director Mike Capaccio told a committee of the military school’s Board of Visitors on Tuesday. Installation will begin by the end of January.
Citadel officials say they are still raising money for the planned renovation of the east side of Johnson Hagood Stadium, which currently has temporary stands.
