Workouts

We started our strength and conditioning program this week. Twice a week we are working out with a personal trainer to help our guys prepare for the upcoming season. Our trainer is a former NFL player who was with the Baltimore Ravens and also played in the Arena League. He puts us through a total body workout that leaves the guys exhausted. We had our first workout Monday and it was an eye opening experience for all of our new guys. We start practice September 7th and are very excited about the upcoming season. We return almost all of our contributors from last season and added a couple of guys who we feel will help us. We were 20-11 last year and hope to build on that and turn it into a National Tournament appearance this season. Best of luck to everyone as you are starting school. I will not update this for a couple of days since I am getting my wisdom teeth taken out tomorrow but will try to get some more information up next week. Have a good Labor Day Weekend.
