Valparaiso University’s football team will hold the annual Brown-Gold intra-squad scrimmage at Brown Field Saturday afternoon beginning at 2:30 p.m.  The scrimmage is open to the public, free of charge.

The Crusaders have been in training camp for just shy of two weeks prior to Saturday's scrimmage, progressing from walk-through practices to full pads to two-a-days.  They have also taken part in off-the-field activities ranging from photo/media day to a social media session to team-building activities.  

There are less than two weeks until the season opener at Brown Field against St. Joseph's (Ind.) on Thursday, August 30 at 7 p.m.  Be sure to follow the team's buildup for the opener by following @ValpoFB on Twitter, liking Valpo Football on Facebook or keeping up-to-date on Coach Carlson's blog at http://blogs.valpo.edu/football/.
