App State football media day brings excitement for the new season

With another summer gone by, a new season of football has begun. Appalachian State football held their annual Media Day on August 5 as they prepare for their fourth season in the Sun Belt conference and first season as reigning Sun Belt champion.

“We are just very excited to get started and it feels like football comes around faster and faster every year,” head coach Scott Satterfield said. “Maybe it’s just because I am getting older and have been here for a while.”

Coming off of back-to-back Camellia Bowl wins and double-digit win seasons, the Mountaineers enter the 2017 season with six returning starters on offense, seven on defense and four on special teams.
