YPSILANTI, Mich. (EMUEagles.com) — The Eastern Michigan University football team was joined by more than 200 of its youngest fans following its practice at "The Factory", Saturday, Aug. 12, as the Eagles hosted their fourth annual Youth Day.

Kids were given a chance to interact and gain lasting memories with the student-athletes through player-run drills held down on the "EMU Gray Turf". The day also served as Media Day, giving those in attendance the chance to hear from the coaching staff.

The morning began with the team's regularly scheduled scrimmage, which included two-minute drills, goal line scenarios and special teams drills.
