FALL CAMP REPORT 2: Another Opportunity To Get Better

NORMAL, Ill. – It was another near-perfect morning weather-wise for the Illinois State football team, as the Redbirds took the turf at Hancock Stadium for their second practice of 2020 fall training camp Friday.

Practice Highlights:
• The offensive and defensive units took the field in helmets only during the NCAA-mandated acclimation period, which transitions to helmets and shoulder pads for the next two practices before moving to full pads on Tuesday.
• Coaches and support staff donned masks or face shields, while student-athletes adhered to social distancing protocols when not in action and equipment was frequently sanitized after use.
