The Orange football team enjoyed its first practice in full pads in front of nearly 2,500 fans at Manley Field House this afternoon. Fans enjoyed the action on the field, which culminted in an offense vs. defense controlled scrimmage.
"They took them to the ground for the first time today and all-in-all it was not bad," said head coach Scott Shafer . "We had some ugly missed tackles at times, but we also had some good hits. The offense did a good job making plays, which they couldn't have done without the offensive line."
The SU volleyball team came out for the event, signing autographs and taking pictures with fans and demonstrating their skills while playing with kids. Following their practice, Coach Shafer and his squad signed autographs.
"It was a great turnout today and we appreciate the fans so much," Shafer said. "We have a lot of holes to fill, kids are working hard, and looking over at the fans motivated the kids to push through what was a tough practice."
