Six transfers help WSSU in spring practice

WINSTON-SALEM, North Carolina -- It’s not an exact science welcoming football transfers during the spring but Winston-Salem State has made it work in recent seasons.

There were six transfers this semester, and Coach Kienus Boulware said to compete in the Division II playoffs signing players from junior colleges or transfers from Division I is a must.

“It’s something we look to do but you can’t just take everybody who wants to come who may have played at a D-I,” Boulware said. “You have to kind of be selective.”

The Rams, who are have gone 54-8 in the last five seasons, have been the most successful program in the state of North Carolina during those five seasons, according to Boulware.

“Winning helps you attract those guys that want to play and want to win,” Boulware said.

The Rams held their first organized scrimmage of spring practice on Monday and running back Malik Mosley, who started his career at Old Dominion, had the most impressive runs.

“He was very good and had some good yardage,” Boulware said.
