Updates

1. Trevor Hunt is having surgery tomorrow morning in Nashville (shoulder). Keep him in your prayers. Also, pray for Luke Tribble to get healthy.

2. Last day to drop a class is THIS FRIDAY (16th). See Coach Huck if you have any questions or know you need to do this.

3. We have18 guys going to Riverview this Thursday. Thanks to Kyle Reeves, Sando, Bo, Aaron G, Jeremy Price, Smithey, Cordell, Jason T, Caleb, Marquale, J Watson, Dre, Chaz, Adin, Rubey, Kurt, J Holt, and Hayden Ponder for being willing to do this.

4. Next Wednesday is the School-Wide "Bisons For Christ." We want EVERYONE involved on this day. The whole school will be involved doing various projects. The school class schedule will be different that day (pay attention in chapel). So far, Dempsey, Tanner D, T.O., Vivio, Sammy, Beach, Mion, Feher, Ryan B, Ragsdale, Coach Hall, Coach Beason, Jermaine, Jasper, and Hayden Ponder are going to CAMP TAHKODAH. We would love for some more guys to go. It will be great to do a little work in then jump in the cool creek. Let me know if you want to go.

5. Get any treatment on any soreness of your hamstrings this next week. Stay healthy! Don't do much physically outside of football for the next week. Rest and recover between workouts.

Message from Coach Beason

Bisons,

On Thursday at 1:20pm, we need 6 guys (or more) to go to Riverview High School (in Searcy) to interact with their 8th and 9th grade football players. If you do not have a 1pm class on Thursday, please plan on going to this. It will only take about 5 minutes to get there and you will spend about 30-40 minutes there. Please let me know if you can go. The coaches are former Bisons, and the players would benefit a lot from being around college athletes. Thanks!

Also, for the Bison Combine next Monday, there will be about 20 guys or so test in the 40 yard dash Monday night. Everyone else will test in the 40 yard MONDAY AFTERNOON. There will be 12 or so players test in Bench Press Monday night, too. The remaining players will test in the bench press and everyone in the hang clean on Tuesday afternoon.

Tomorrow, make sure to get your BACK workout in on your own. Groups 1 and 3 should be in the weight room by 2:15pm if you want to lift before your speed work, or you must lift right after the speed work (this option is best). Group 2 must be in the wieght room by 3:15pm or lift right after the speed work (this option is best). Stay healthy!

Message from Coach Beason

Bisons,

On Wednesday, April 21, Harding University is having its annual "Bisons for Christ" Day of Service. This is a great day to help all kinds of people in and around the Searcy community. We want ALL OF OUR PLAYERS involved on this day. Most of you will be helping with a Kid Football Camp at our stadium (like we have done for the past few years). I need a handful of guys to go with me to Camp Tahkodah to do some work up there. As you know, Camp Tahkodah is a beautiful place. It is big, and there is always work to be done. Please let me know if you would be interested in going with me to Camp Tahkodah, so I can let them know about how many people we will have. That will help them plan what we can accomplish that day.

Thanks! Coach Beason

Monday

Group A will lift at 3:15, and group B at 3:15. Tomorrow will be speed work with groups going at the same time.
