ETTRICK, VA - Interim Head Coach Shannon Harris and the Coaching staff is ecstatic to host the 2022 Trojan Spring Game after missing the tradition two years straight due to Covid-19 concerns. The game is set for Saturday, April 9 at 2:00 p.m.

"The staff and myself are very excited to have a spring game with these guys so they can get a chance to give Trojan Nation a reason to be excited about VSU Football this coming fall. These guys haven't had a spring game in two years so we are all really excited for them!" stated Coach Harris.

The day will start with a little stretch to limber the players up. After that, they will go straight into individual drills to sharpen their fundamentals before heading into 7-on-7. The team will then go into 11-on-11 prior to the start of the spring game.

Scoring System 
Offense - 3 points for getting into the redzone (25 yard line and in) | 7 points for touchdowns 
Defense - 3 points for a turn over on downs | 7 points for turnovers 

*No Tackling*

When asked about what the goals are for the team in the spring game Interim Head Coach Shannon Harris had this to say,

"We want to really focus on getting lined up correctly and playing fast and confidently while also keeping an eye out for emerging leaders on the team. For the defense, I want to see guys coming to balance before making a tag off and avoiding penalties. For the offense, I want to see my QB's making the right reads while getting the ball out on time, I want to see the OL move their feet and avoid holding and I want to see them keep their pre-snap penalties to a minimum. Above all else I want to get out of this game with no serious injuries on either side."


After the 2022 Trojan Spring Game, the next time you will see the Trojans in action will be on Saturday, September 3 in Hickory, NC taking on the Lenoir-Rhyne Bears.
