Cavalier football team begins spring practices
Spring workout and practice sessions opened yesterday, marking the start of the 2007 Virginia football campaign. After falling just one win short of a bowl bid last season, the Cavaliers look to build upon last fall's promising finish.
During a press conference Tuesday, coach Al Groh spoke of "high expectations" for his defense, led by junior defensive lineman Chris Long, but reserved judgment on an offense that -- while much improved from last year -- still has its share of question marks. Redshirt freshman quarterback Jameel Sewell underwent wrist surgery after the season which could affect his participation in practice this spring.
Groh explained that while quarterback experience was a problem last year, another component of the offensive struggles was the inexperienced offensive line.
"That's where it all starts," Groh said Tuesday, "The most important thing [for the offense] is the experience of these linemen and the confidence that they gained last year."
Spring sessions are time for such improvements, and it appears as though the Cavaliers laid a solid foundation last season upon which to improve.-- compiled by Benjamin Faust
