ARCHBISHOP MITTY HIGH SCHOOL
Athletic Renovations, San Jose
IN A DESIGN-DESIGN/ASSIST capacity, Verde Design was
selected by the owner to oversee the entire project from a
management perspective and then assist Mitty in selecting a
contractor. Verde Design, Robert A. Bothman, and AMHS
then worked together to finalize the design to fit within the
collective project’s programming needs and the available
budget. The existing stadium field was replaced with
synthetic turf, and a new sandwich urethane track surface was
installed, along with other amenities.
Program:
• Synthetic turf football, lacrosse, and soccer field
• All-weather running track and track & field events
• LED Scoreboard

The ability of synthetic turf to withstand heavier use than natural turf
means it can be used by the football, soccer, and lacrosse teams.
Other improvements included the all-weather track, an LED scoreboard,
and utility planning.
