FieldTurf has added Roger Yago to its network of sales representatives. Roger will be based in Colorado and will represent FieldTurf as regional sales manager in Colorado, Utah, Wyoming, and Montana. Roger's extensive experience in sales, marketing, customer service and athletics makes him a great fit with the world's leading and most innovative sports surfacing company.
The growing demand for the FieldTurf product and the need to continue to properly service clients has led to an expansion in FieldTurf's sales and customer service personnel.
"We're very happy to have Roger on board," said FieldTurf Vice-President of Sales, Martin Olinger. "His understanding of athletic business at every level of the game will serve him well in his new role. Roger is a customer-focused individual and understands the quality-based pillars of success for our business. Roger will be a great resource for our clients."

After playing football for the University of Colorado from 1986-1991, and being part of the national championship winning team in 1991, Roger worked for Anheuser-Busch in an important sales & marketing role before he entered the golf industry in a sales management capacity, where he has spent the last 10 years.
