There will be no lighting of a torch, unless it's to bring Fouts Field down, but its Mean Green Olympics today for the football team at Fouts Field. The team will be competing today, offense vs. defense, in all kinds of different events.
It ranges from the shot put, tire flip, gator pull, tug-of-war, to 60 meter, 100 meter, and 200-meter races and many more. The day is the culmination of the winter workouts in preparation for spring practice.
I've got Tyler Stradford as the favorite to win the running events, but Lance Dunbar I hear is predicting a victory.
The winner gets a pat on the back, the loser "a good kick in the butt," said Coach Mac. Regardless of who wins today, it's a great team building exercise.
We will have the winners for you tomorrow.
