Marathon Lawn Yellowing

Time to ask the lawn experts for advice!

I can't rehabilitate my Marathon lawn for some reason. Would anyone have any suggestions? :)

Here are the details:

Age: ~1 year old Marathon I lawn.

Fertilization: Topper layer when installed. Fertilized several times with Marathon brand food and once with Nitra King a month ago.

Watering: 15 min @ MWF when warm, now 15 min @ MTh.

Mowing: Once a week @ ~3".

I admit, I did not maintain a steady fertilizing schedule and my mowing habits were not weekly the past few months.

The lawn has slowed in growth in the past 6? months or so. There has been nothing else applied or done to it.

Side note: I've been considering going organic with a pure compost/plant meal regime. I do organic garden in my backyard and my soil has a fair amount of clay, but is quite healthy as my fruit trees are growing substantially. Gotta respect Mother Nature!
