STATESBORO, Ga. - The Georgia Southern football team capped its Friday practice with a dip in Beautiful Eagle Creek , continuing the tradition of "baptizing" seniors of the program.
In the fourth year of this tradition, head coach Tyson Summers waded into the "magical" waters of the creek along with the senior class.
After practice, the players got down on a knee huddled around Coach Summers who offered praise of their camp - which ends Saturday with the team's second scrimmage - while pointing out areas the team can improve.
When Summers was done, the team headed over to the creek and gathered around the banks near the sign marking Beautiful Eagle Creek.
