The two tone stripes are the in thing in baseball

With grass, it is the direction that they mow. With artificial turf, it's permament, until they replace the turf. I also think the logos could be better.

Agreed.**

Looks like a turf mound??! That’s a bad idea**
NOVAbasebllfan • 12/07/23 07:07 PM ET
I believe turf will be cut off the mound and will be a dirt mound.**
HokieJack • 12/09/23 08:44 PM ET
Yeah, that’s what they’ve done before.**
RJHokie • 12/09/23 08:46 PM ET
Didn't notice it before, but I believe you are correct. Not a fan of those
Nortazhokie • 12/07/23 07:25 PM ET
Don't understand how those are allowed by the NCAA

Wake Forest has a turf pitcher’s mound.
RJHokie • 12/09/23 08:47 PM ET
I see more turf mounds than dirt mounds on the turf fields I have seen on
LXNTN_HOKIE • 12/13/23 01:41 AM ET

HokieJack • 12/13/23 03:04 AM ET
College of Charleston has one

Most of our pitchers have pitched on turf mounds in summer travel ball.
HokieJack • 12/10/23 01:42 PM ET
Are turf mounds the norm or exception in setups like VT’s?**
RJHokie • 12/10/23 06:20 PM ET
It is mixed.
HokieJack • 12/12/23 04:35 AM ET
Good info.**
