Pro Day Training 3/14/11- Workout At The Dome

I met the CCSU football players this morning for a 6:30 workout at the Star Hill Athletic Dome in Tolland.  We wanted to get a workout at the Dome because it is the site of the CCSU proday.  I wanted to the players to get used to the turf and the environment.  Well we were glad we did because the first thing we noticed was how cold it was in the Dome.   The guys were prepared as they warmed up in their sweats.  They stayed in their sweats until it was time to workout.  But it was still pretty cold for them.  Anyway what we wanted to do is run the 40 yard dash, the 5/10/5 pro agility, and the 3 cone drill (Ldrill).  We spent lots of time go over each drill and the players made sure they worked out with the right shoe and gear for each drill.  Josue Paul was very impressive in the 40 yard dash as he stacked three 4.4 40s in a row!  He also did a 1.39 10 yard dash.  The video I attached shows one of his 40s.   I did not want to time Alondre because he his hamstrings were a little sore from hte workout on Sunday.   After the 40 yard dash we did several sets of the 5/10/5 pro agility and the 3 cone drill.  Some we timed and some we taped.  We did lots of analyzing on each drill.  They both did well with the drills.  We may have to work out a couple of gliches but overall the drills went well.  We all felt good about doing the workout at the Dome.  The players got a chance to get work on the field turf and use their cleats.  We did about  two and a half hours of work at the Dome.  We plan to do another workout at the Dome on Thursday morning at 6:30.  Tomorrow the CCSU players are working out at Next Level in Bloomfield at 8am.  We will return for another workout at the Dome on Thursday morning at 6:30am.
