Golden Eagle football opens fall camp with energy and enthusiasm

COOKEVILLE, Tenn. – The countdown is on as the Tennessee Tech football team gets ready for its first game of the season – exactly a month from Monday. But if the first practice of the season was any indication, the Golden Eagles are looking to make some noise this season in the inaugural Big South-Ohio Valley Conference Football Association race. The energy was high, the players were excited and it showed on the Tucker Stadium turf as the Golden Eagles went through drills with no pads – those will come in later days – and held its first session of Fall Camp. With a vast majority of the team working through the summer through individual workouts before the official camp sessions started on Monday, the squad was ready to go and looked ready to fine tune as they work toward the team's season opener against Furman on August 31.
