BOONE, N.C. — Excited exchanges of hugs and high-fives marked the 11 a.m. arrival of players to the Appalachian State football team's meeting room Thursday morning.
Report Day for the start of fall camp coincided with an afternoon Media Day three floors up in the Mark E. Ricks Athletics Complex, giving head coach Eliah Drinkwitz and others the first game-month opportunity to discuss preparations for the 2019 season.
While the initial meeting of the day served as a quick reunion for many, it was the first time that the 2019 App State football team was all together in one spot.
