January Update

The team has entered the second week of winter workouts! Coach Wilcox is doing an excellent job of putting everyone to the test so we can be in the best possible shape for our game in Africa and for the upcoming season. I had shoulder surgery 7 weeks ago and Coach Wilcox still finds things for myself and other injured players to do during our intense workouts. The fifth year seniors and players in their final year of eligibility are sitting down with Coach Creighton to discuss leadership, off-season goals, a theme for the season and season goals. Spring ball is right around the corner and everyone knows that the summer flies by so the season, all though it seems far away, will be here before we know it and we will welcome the new members of our Drake Football family and compete for a PFL Championship. In other news, fund raising is going extremely well. We have made great strides and raised a lot of money with our Lift-a-thon! Players are getting more excited for the trip as it draws closer but are still driven by the idea of winning our first PFL Championship since 2004. The offseason is shaping up to be a great one and everyone on the team will continue to give our absolute best for eachother and the Bulldog faithful!
