Hub on the Road — Martin Softball Complex at University of Illinois

We visit the newly-built Martin Softball campus on the campus of the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign to talk with Chris Asklund, project manager for A&R Mechanical, about the heating component of the project and its reliance of NIBCO butterfly and ball valves, and strainers.

The new state-of-the-art indoor practice facility for the Fighting Illini softball program was built thanks to a sizable lead naming gift from Rex Martin and his daughters, Ashley Martin and Alexis Martin-Klose. Their gift will honor their late wife and mother, Alice Martin.
