The Drake University football team began preparations for the 2016 season on Wednesday evening with its first practice under the lights at Drake Stadium.
The entire roster reported to campus on Tuesday for the team's annual 'Reunion Day.' After a full day of meetings, physicals, equipment fittings and announcements, the Bulldogs began positional meetings on Wednesday prior to taking the field at around 7:20 p.m.
"It's great to back out here with these guys. There was a ton of energy out here and having a blast being back on the field," said head coach Rick Fox.
