The fans that attended the final practice at Griffiths Stadium observed a day of tune ups and walk-thrus before the Green and White Game tomorrow at the Gordie Howe Sports Complex. Special teams were a focus today, as the team practiced punt and kickoff returns. Those who stayed a few minutes after practice ended got to witness kicker Henry Nell launch a 55-yard field goal from the Huskies logo in the middle of the field.
The Club is looking forward to hosting fans for an afternoon of fun at SMF Field Saturday afternoon. Activities for the whole family begin at noon – and end around 5 p.m. with an autograph session with the players.
