McFadden breezes through SCSU's beginning sessions

Marshall McFadden breezed through his early-morning gassers as South Carolina State opened its football camp Saturday. The redshirt junior’s relative ease in completing the physical test was a result of the work he put in in the S.C. State weight room over the summer. The guys who were not at SCSU for the summer didn’t find the 7 a.m., pre-first practice tests as easy.

“I was here during the whole summer,” McFadden said. “I was training the whole time I was here. We had a week off, and before we left we had a test where we had to run six 300-yard gassers in a certain time period. If we passed that test when we got back (Saturday), we had an easier test for gassers.

“I knocked it out without a problem...but the guys who couldn’t make it (during the summer) had a little harder test. It was tough for some of those guys, but the main thing was we got it over and done with.”
