Belle Vernon does not have a turf softball field, but that won’t stop the Leopards from playing a home game on an artificial surface Saturday.

And a pretty cool one at that.

The 10 a.m. game will be played at the school’s football stadium — James Weir Stadium — with its unique, Vegas gold-colored surface.

This is a perfect example of why schools like to refer to turf venues as multi-purpose fields.
