NAU Football Wraps Up Spring Practice #1

The NAU Football Lumberjacks completed their first practice in preparation for the 2013 season, with the first of 15 spring practices on Tuesday. The practice mostly focused on fundamentals and installing new plays. The practice was very fast paced and up tempo allowing the Lumberjacks to get maximum reps in during the practice time.

The Lumberjacks return to the field on Thursday. Also, the entire NAU Football spring practice schedule can be found here.

Below are some photos from Tuesday’s practice. More can be found on the following links:

Andy Bachelier’s Ridiculous Half Court Shot

Before the NAU men’s basketball game on Thursday, NAU Football held a team meeting and during it had the next installment of its team competition for the spring of 2013. The team competition series is an activity that breaks down the entire football roster into smaller teams that compete against each other in categories such as community service hours, academics, Football IQ, along with various physical competitions. This week’s physical competition was basketball featuring three different challenges: Free Throw competition, three point competition, and half court shot competition. Videos from both the free throw and three point competitions will be posted in the upcoming days. However, it was the half court shot competition that EVERYONE on the team will remember, especially long snapper Andy Bachelier’s. Check out the video below to see what happens!
