ELIZABETH CITY, North Carolina -- The Jones Era begins as the Elizabeth City State University football team prepares open preseason camp today on the
practice field behind Roebuck Stadium at 2 p.m.

Players reported on Monday, thrilled to begin training. "It felt great coming back for my final season here," stated senior tight end captain Carlton Evans. "Vincent A. Thomas, Deon Yarborough, and I worked out over the summer. The vibe is totally different around campus. The coaches bring enthusiasm and everyone has that winning mentality."

The Vikings will go through a series of practices before opening the season on Saturday, September 1 hosting Central State University (OH) for its first annual Smoke on the River Military Game in Roebuck Stadium.

Head coach Anthony Jones will be available after practice for comments. Media should make contact with the Sports Information Director (John Westbrook) to advise when they plan to come to campus for practice.
