SC State Continues Spring Practices

ORANGEBURG, SC (SCSU) – South Carolina State resume spring drills after a few days off with its fifth of 15 workouts Tuesday (Mar. 27) morning in a 6:15 a.m. session.

With a full week of spring drills behind them, the Bulldogs continue to work on installation of offense and defensive schemes, along with special team drills.

“We are almost half way finish with the spring and things are moving really fast,” said head coach Buddy Pough.  Things are coming together on schedule and for the most part we have some players that we think can help us become a really good football team.”

Pough stated, “There is still some concern at depth with the offensive line, but the quarterbacks are showing signs of growth, and overall we have no major injuries to have us (coaches) worried at this point. “

South Carolina State will hold two scrimmages during the spring on Saturday, April 1st  and, April 8th and will end drills with the Apr.15th  annual Garnet and Blue Spring game.

Prior to the game on Friday, April 14th, the Department of Athletics will hold its Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony that was originally scheduled for Sept. 8, but was cancelled due to Hurricane Matthew.
