ETTRICK, Virginia -- The VSU Athletic Department released their 2015 Trojan Football schedule on Monday, February 16.The Trojans have a strong 2015 schedule with first year Head Coach Byron Thweatt. "We have a very challenging schedule this year. Opening up with three quality non- conference programs should prove beneficial for us in terms of our ability to establish a new identity in 2015," said Coach Thweatt. "The CIAA is a very tough conference and hopefully we can benefit from having 4 conference games at home."
VSU kicks off their 2015 campaign at home against California University (PA) on Saturday, September 5. This is their second consecutive season opener against a PSAC opponent. The Trojans will then travel to Grenville, TN for their first ever matchup against Tusculum College on Saturday, September 12. On week three, VSU three will come back home to Rogers Stadium to face Kentucky State University on Saturday, September 19.
Following the Kentucky State game, VSU will get into conference play facing Fayetteville State University on Saturday, September 26 at Rogers Stadium.
