Red Sox, Patriots, Celtics—and yes—the Red Sox are in first place again with the Evil Empire (Yankees) taking the year off.

University of Massachusetts Field Day—presents turf research findings 
The UMASS Field Day was an educational experience that featured new research findings about disease resistance in turf.
I attended the University of Massachusetts turf school field day last week with Tom Hill and Kyle Miller. The UMASS program has been revitalized by several new professors and a new turf research facility. It was an interesting day viewing the current research at UMASS.
