BOONE, N.C. — After tough fitness training and a 5v5 winners tournament in the morning, Appalachian State University men’s soccer took the field for the first practice of the 2016 season on Tuesday.
“Today we wanted to focus in on some defensive aspects and get the guys acclimated and get them comfortable,” head coach Jason O’Keefe said. “Thirteen new players, so hard fitness test this morning and then some 5v5 winners round-robin tournament where they were able to kind of come out and express themselves and hopefully relax a little. Overall, some good stuff but not nearly where we want to be.
