Spring is in the air.

With 5am work-outs out of the way, spring practice is in full swing. The Eagles have geared up for the big push to make some noise in the Mid-South Conference in 2009. 5 practices into spring ball and things are starting to click. New head coach Gregg Baker is liking what he sees.
"Things are going smooth and the tempo is great" stated Baker. Practice Thursday ended with some good ole smash mouth 11 on 11 with both sides of the ball looking good. Faulkner hit the practice field last week with 84 players, which included several new spring transfers. Several of the new players have already begun to stand out. Spring practice will conclude on March 14th with the annual Blue and White game at Cramton Bowl at 10:00am. The game is open to the public. Come out and see your 2009 Faulkner Eagles.
