USM prepares for Saturday’s scrimmage

Friday’s practice was a rain-wrenched session that saw the defense shut down the offense when pitted up against each other. Towards the end of practice with the offense looking for points, the first-team defense shut down Nick Mullens and his squad forcing him to throw into tight windows and not letting the receivers getting open.

“It definitely was a good day defensively today,” said coach Jay Hopson. “I’m hoping that kind of blends together tomorrow so we’ll see a little both of good on both sides.”

On Saturday, the Golden Eagles will take part in an intra-squad scrimmage as part of Eagle Fanfare.
