BOWLING GREEN, Ky. — Though the pursuit of a third consecutive Conference USA championship is already underway in the weight room, the 2017 WKU Hilltoppers will hit the field for the first time under head coach Mike Sanford on Thursday, March 23 when they begin spring practices.

All 14 practices lead up to the annual Red and White Spring Game, set for April 22 at 3 p.m., and all practices are open to the public. Admission and parking to the spring game will be free and more details will be announced soon.

The Hilltoppers enter 2017 with the return of C-USA Newcomer of the Year, quarterback Mike White, as well as veteran offensive linemen Brandon Ray and Dennis Edwards to lead the charge up front for offensive coordinator Junior Adams.
