North Carolina A&T Aggies Set To Start Camp

GREENSBORO, North Carolina -- North Carolina A&T, who is picked to win the MEAC football championship in 2015, will open camp 4 p.m., Thursday, Aug. 6 on the practice field behind the Aggie Stadium facility.

The football players will report to camp on Aug. 5 at noon. The Aggies are coming off a 9-3 season in which they posted a 6-2 conference record that helped them win a share of the MEAC title, their first in 11 years. The Aggies also earned their first national ranking in 10 years when they entered the STATS FCS poll at No. 24 following their 34-0 win over Savannah State on Nov. 15.

“I’m looking forward to getting started,” said fifth-year head coach Rod Broadway. “I still love this game and I still love competing. And I think we have a chance to be a pretty good football team. But this is a funny business. One injury could change everything.”

The Aggies have three two-a-days on their camp schedule, Wednesday, Aug. 12, Friday, Aug. 14 and Monday, Aug. 17. Camp breaks on Aug. 18 and classes begin on Aug. 19. A&T’s annual Fun Fest is Aug. 22 at 2 p.m.
