Growing grass where above ground pool used to be...?

Hi from northerm Illinois,

Our lawn is a KBG/fescue mix.

Last year we had a 12 ft. inflatable pool set up. We took it down last fall and decided to fix the grass this spring.

This spring my hubby threw down some topsoil (2 bags) and a mulch, fert, seed type product and depended on our rainfall to water it. :(

The 5 ft. in the middle is coming in grass (sparse) but the rest of the entire diameter of where the pool was is thick crabgrass.

I sprayed it with crabgrass killer, and some of it has died.

How can we fix this? We're lawn dummies, so laymans terms would be great!
