BOONE, N.C. – Appalachian State returns to the practice field on Wednesday afternoon after back-to-back days off for the first time in a month. The Mountaineers worked out briefly on Sunday night following Saturday’s win 17-3 win over Georgia State.

App’s defense took care of the Mountaineers in their Sun Belt opener on Saturday. Four interceptions and a Sun Belt Special Teams Player of the Week honor to punter Bentlee Critcher powered App to their 14th win in 15 Sun Belt contests dating back to 2014. This week, for App head coach Scott Satterfield, the early part of the half week off has been about healing up from two months of camp and, almost, the first half of the season.
