ASU travel crew handles long trip

SEATTLE -- Hayden McClain took his last looks around the 18-wheeler Tuesday morning.

Whiteboards, rain gear, massage tables, Powerade, coaches headsets, laundry bins, lounge chairs. Everything but a helmet, pads and two pairs of cleats for each player had been piled in for the 2,220-mile trip west.

It's the start of a hectic stretch for McClain, who is in his first year as Arkansas State's director of football operations. Over the next three weeks, the Red Wolves will rack up more than 6,500 miles on the road, starting today with their trip to Washington and followed by games at Tulsa and Georgia Southern.
