Football: Penguins Begin Contact With Hoot N' Holler
Youngstown --
The Youngstown State football team
began full-contact drills on Tuesday
afternoon at Stambaugh Stadium. The
Penguins worked out for 80 minutes
in a practice that consisted of
drills, Hoot N' Holler, a brief
top-unit scrimmage and field-goal
attempts.
Coach Jon Heacock said the fourth workout of the spring went
well.
"There was a lot of enthusiasm out there today so that was
good to see," Heacock said. "There
was a lot of energy for the most
part and I was pleased with how hard
we played. We have a young team so
we have to play harder than other
squads and play with a lot of
passion."
After the Hoot N' Holler drill, which was held at the
midpoint of the practice, the
Penguins held a brief scrimmage
featuring players from the top
units. All three quarterbacks --
Aaron Marshall, Luis Gonzalez and
Matt Rycraft -- took snaps during
the scrimmage.
Following the scrimmage, redshirt freshman Joe Bishop and
junior transfer Nick Terracina
worked on field goals. Terracina
made a 47-yard kick into a stiff
North wind to highlight the kicking
duel.
YSU continues practice on Friday, March 28 at 3:30 p.m. in
Stambaugh Stadium. Youngstown State
will also practice on Saturday at
9:15 a.m. |
