MONROE,
La. – The ULM football team wrapped up its second day of two-a-day practices with
a two-hour workout at Malone Stadium on Thursday. The Warhawks worked out on the grass
practice fields in the morning before putting on full pads for the afternoon
session.
“The
players are working extremely hard,” head coach Todd Berry said. “We still have
a long way to go and fortunately we have a long time still before our first
game. We are starting to get a little since of urgency about ourselves and some
comfort.”
The
Warhawks' focus continues to be on player evaluation as the team prepares for
its first scrimmage on Saturday evening. One thing that has impressed the coaching staff through the two-a-day practices has been the teams' effort.
“I
like our energy right now,” Berry said. “We kind of hit a wall today, but one
thing I can guarantee about this team is that they are going to play hard. We
will play every snap like it's the last snap we will ever play so that is what
I am pleased with right now.
Five
more newcomers had their helmet stripes removed. Elliott Hilliard, Mitchell Bailey,
Luke Russell, Colby Harper and Trevor Dillard lost their helmet stickers following
practice on Thursday.
The Warhawks will practice once on Friday before its final day of two-a-days on Saturday, capped by its first scrimmage at 6:30 p.m. at Malone Stadium.
ULM
opens the 2010 season on Sept. 11 against No. 19 Arkansas in Little Rock, Ark.
Kickoff is scheduled for 6 p.m. and the game will be televised by Fox Sports
