Winter workouts

Winter Competition
The Drake football team has started the second semester with a handful of events. Everyone did a great job with the lift-a-thon, and really got our team excited thinking about our trip to Africa. The off-season is made up of multitude of objectives, but the main two are: recruiting and strength/conditioning training. In December/January/February each player has showed potential recruits what it is like to be a college student, and have given advice to seniors who are considering to Drake. We’ve had some great recruiting events like: paintball, broomball, and the men’s Drake basketball game. Broomball  proved to be violent with all the guys falling on the ice, but everyone had a great time.  The team has really done an outstanding job, and it will show in August when we have 36 new bulldogs ready to join our family. The next thing that is imperative to our team success is our off-season strength and conditioning program. Coach Wilcox has been a great addition to our staff and our team. It is quite evident that he is knowledgeable. We are broken down into four teams and have two competitions each week. Each competition challenges us to push it to the limit, and to go farther than we could imagine. All these winter workouts are training us for Spring ball, and will help to bring the competitiveness out of everyone. I feel the team is heading in the right direction, and I hope we keep our goals insight.

Talk to you soon,
