Eagles Kick Off Season With Opening Practice
STATESBORO, Ga. – Overcast skies and a cool 77 degree temperature welcomed the Georgia Southern football team Monday morning. Junior Wesley Fields was the first to cross the bridge despite arriving back to Statesboro at 3:15 a.m. following some gnarly travel delays coming back from the Sun Belt Conference Media Day with senior Chris DeLaRosa.
Monday officially ushered in the 2017 Georgia Southern football season. Along with head coach Tyson Summers, the Eagles gathered before the bridge, crossing over Beautiful Eagle Creek at 9:36 a.m. The energy was high and players and staff were "giddy", as the Eagles began camp.
