Magee football players did not appeal to be tired or slow as they hit the field Monday morning at 12:01 am for the first eligible practice of the season. With the sound of the whistle the 2018 Football season is officially underway for the Trojans!
A new tradition Coach Dyess is bringing is to start the first practice of the season at midnight!
All players seemed wide awake and ready to show the fans what they are made of. Magee will play Saturday, August 11, 2018 at Mississippi State University in a jamboree before season starts the following week.
Coach Dyess is giving these athletes the experience of playing in college level facilities. Magee played in a jamboree in the spring at Southern Miss and now they will play at Mississippi State University. This is a chance of a lifetime for some of these players.
New traditions are not all that are changing. The Trojans will have a new look! Magee will hit the field in the coming weeks in new uniforms. A uniform reveal is planed. The players will have 16 different uniforms combinations to wear.
Coach Dyess means business, but at the same time he is enjoying the boys and rewarding them with fun time. All players that met 80% of summer workouts were treated to a day of fun at the water park in Gulfport. This is a great ideal for team bonding with players and coaches.
