Hampton learns new systems, improves in spring football practice

HAMPTON, Virginia  -- Connell Maynor looked for effort more than execution in his first spring football game as Hampton University's head coach. He saw enough of both to be pleased, though by no means satisfied.

"I look for guys to compete, make plays and see who's got some heart, who's going to fight through a little bit of adversity," Maynor said. "See how they're going to react, if they're going to start pointing fingers or pushing each other. If they're going to keep their head up and understand it's just one play of a football game, and you have the rest of the game to have a positive impact."

The Pirates showed well during a spirited one-hour, 50-minute session on a balmy Friday evening at Armstrong Stadium.
