Miners show growth in spring scrimmage

The second week of spring football came to a close as the offense and defense scrimmaged for the first time on Friday, March 25.

While the Miners used an up-tempo offense, the defense showcased defensive coordinator Tom Mason’s 3-4 scheme for the first time.

There were tough plays on both ends and the scrimmage served as a growing point for the team going into their third week of practice.

“It was a good, physical scrimmage,” head coach Sean Kugler said.“I thought there was really a lot of good give and take. I thought the offense moved the ball well, they only punched it in once.
