St. John’s University in Collegeville, Minnesota takes its football very seriously. Saturdays throughout the fall feature a surging stream of red pouring into the picturesque little hollow containing Clements Stadium. Clements is home to the winningest football program all-time in NCAA Division III history with a 526-217-24 record in 95 seasons. Coach John Gagliardi has led the Johnnies to 432 wins in the past 57 seasons making him the winningest coach in college football history. In December 2003, the St. John Johnnies won the Division III championship capping off an undefeated season.

In the summer of 2002, St. John’s installed a new playing surface on their field. They went with an artificial turf from Sprinturf. Under the turf is a Multi-Flow drainage system. The Multi-Flow was installed horizontally and in a herringbone pattern. Multi-Flow is frequently installed horizontally under artificial turf. This prevents the need for trenching and provides a generous surface area for water collection. Multi-Flow’s strength was appreciated when truckloads of fill rolled onto the field.
