As the Northwestern State football team gathered together Monday for its “report day” portion of fall camp, there was something that seemed to be lacking a season ago: Familiarity.
“We didn’t really know what to expect (last year),” redshirt junior linebacker Danny Sears said. “We had only had a spring (with head coach Blaine McCorkle and his staff) before fall camp. New people, you’re merging with a lot of different people, and you didn’t know what to expect. I think we’ve done a really good job this summer of coming together more. We know what to expect from each other, and we really established our standards as a team.”
The Demons spent most of Monday handling the tedious parts that come with the beginning of the season.
