MONROE, La. - The ULM football
team went through a pair of practices on Tuesday in the first of three
two-a-day practice sessions of fall camp. The Warhawks worked out on the grass
practice fields in the morning before moving into Malone Stadium for the
afternoon practice.
"The consistency is not
anywhere close to where it needs to be," head coach Todd Berry said. "One thing
that I do know about this team is that we will come out and compete. That is kind
of the first order of business - getting to where you trust your football team.
I do trust this team that they will go
out and compete."
The two-hour
afternoon session
was in full pads with a majority of the time spent working on team
drills. Offensive lineman Josh Allen was the lone newcomer to have his
helmet
stripe removed following practice.
"There is a comfort level that
I am seeing on both sides of the football that is intriguing," Berry said. "We
are continuing to sabotage each play, but you can see some guys where the light
bulb is coming on and things are starting to click for them, which is also
encouraging."
With the season opener against
No. 19 Arkansas still 24 days away on Sept. 11, the Warhawks are focusing on
themselves and are not yet ready to turn their attention to the Razorbacks.
"We're still focused on us and
will we try and maintain that through the course of the year," Berry said. "Certainly
you have to adjust the schemes and having a good quality game plan that is
executed properly is significant, but so is taking care of your own self. We'll
stay focused on us getting better and continuing to raise our standard of
performance."
The Warhawks will practice one
time on Wednesday in the afternoon on the grass fields. Kickoff against Arkansas is scheduled for 6 p.m. and the game will be
televised by Fox Sports Net. Season tickets and away game tickets can be
