Football: Gaiters intra-squad scrimmage set for
Saturday August 21, 2009 Bishop's Gaiters 2009 Football Prospectus (pdf) LENNOXVILLE - The Bishop’s
Gaiters will host their Purple and White intra-squad scrimmage tomorrow,
August 22, restarting a tradition that had been dormant for several
years. The scrimmage is set to start at 2:30 p.m. at Coulter Field. The game will cap the first week
of the Gaiters’ 2008 training camp. Approximately 100 student-athletes have
descended on the Lennoxville campus this week for the Gaiters’ annual
training sessions. That number includes 57 returning players (18
starters) from last year’s squad which
posted a 3-5 record and finished fifth in the QUFL. "I am very excited about the team we have put
together," said Gaiters' Head Coach Leroy Blugh. "We feel that we have a
good mix of older and younger players." After Saturday's scrimmage,
the Gaiters will return to the rigors of training camp, with two-a-day practices resuming on
Monday. The Gaiters’ first regular-season game is set for Friday,
September 4 at 7 p.m. at the Sherbrooke Vert & Or. |
