STATESBORO - Georgia Southern head football coach Tyson Summers put his team through a high-intensity workout in full pads on a sun-splashed Tuesday afternoon at Beautiful Eagle Creek, the third spring practice for the Eagles. The team gathered at the bridge at 2:54 p.m. and crossed over as a group to the encouragement of Summers, who tried to stress the importance of the day. By the time they broke the huddle at 5:36 p.m., everyone had put in a full day of hard work on the field.
After stretching, Summers summoned several players to the middle for a one-on-one drill in front of the whole team, with the offense cheering when they won the battle and the defense equally excited when their man won.
