SENATOBIA – Almost 50 high school student-athletes grades 8-12 showed up for Northwest's Offensive/Defensive Lineman and QB Academy/Offensive Skills Camp sponsored by Sycamore Bank June 6-7 under first-year head coach Jack Wright.

"We had a solid turnout and every county in our district was represented," Wright said. "It was a great opportunity for us to get these kids on campus and take a look at them. We got to do a lot of different drills and were able to look at each position from a lot of different aspects."

Each day started off with testing and agility drills. Campers were tested in a variety of areas such as the 40-yard dash, shuttle, broad jump and L-cone drill to name a few. Each practice was split into two segments that fell into two different categories, basic fundamentals and reaction.   

"Overall it was a great two days and a great turnout and we hope to see it expand in the future."

Northwest will also host a Senior Showcase on Thursday, July 10 from 9 a.m.–12:30 p.m. and the cost is just $5. For more information please click here for the flyer.
