Greetings from South Carolina! We've just crossed the South Carolina border and the excitement is palpable. We've managed to watch all 6 Rocky films, to overcome some mechanical issues with our tour bus, and to weather the monsoon that washed through then tri-state area this morning. All in all it's been a great teambuilding experience for the guys.
Following yesterday's fitness tests, the Coaching Staff is ready to put our players through 3 training sessions tomorrow in preparation for our scrimmage with the Charleston Outlaws. Players will be reintroduced to contact in the morning with a focus on tackle and defensive technique. Following a break for lunch, we will train within our offensive system. In the early evening, we will review our defensive structures. Players will then head to dinner to reload on some much needed calories. Our tour bus will be pulling up to CaliforniaDreamin' Restaurant for some seafood and views of the Charleston waterfront.
I'm proud and thankful of the efforts that Fordham athletics and our staff have put forth to make this trip a reality. We are excited to break new ground for the program and most importantly to prepare for our 2013 Empire Conference campaign. We are hungry to prove we belong, and hope that this is the first step forward to a great season.
Stay tuned for an update from our players next.
