CHESTNUT HILL, Mass. – After a wave of positive momentum throughout the off-season, the Boston College football team returned to the practice field for the first official practice of the 2018 season Friday. The Eagles practiced in the new state-of-the-art Fish Field House for over two hours in helmets as the NCAA's five-day acclimatization period started.
The Eagles will wear just helmets again Saturday before wearing helmets and shoulder pads on Sunday and Monday. Following an off day on Tuesday, BC will don full pads for the first time on Wednesday.
Head coach Steve Addazio addressed the media following practice and was pleased with the team's energy and effort.
