FAMU Gridders Continue Camp Work Saturday morning


"Either we rise together or we fall together…the choice is ours." – Milton Overton, A.D. 

TALLAHASSEE, Florida -- The Florida A&M University (FAMU) Football team went through over two hours of morning practice Saturday as the first week of training camp for the 2015 season wraps up.

Head coach Alex Wood and his staff, put the Rattler hopefuls through a fast paced work schedule Saturday morning in helmets, shoulder pads and shorts, with a one hour walk through scheduled for Saturday afternoon.

So far, the first week of work has been hampered a bit by thunderstorms, which threw off the outdoor schedule on Tuesday and Wednesday, but an early morning practice on Thursday (5:30) helped get the schedule back on track.

The Rattlers have had some 11-on-11 drills the past two days, but no contact, which will not begin until Monday, when the team starts two weeks of alternating two-a-day sessions (8 a.m, 3 p.m.. Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays), with solo practices (3 p.m.) Tuesdays and Thursdays; 10 a.m. Saturdays).

Sunday, the Rattlers will practice at 2:00 p.m. after morning church services, their final scheduled workout before contact drills begin Monday.
