Viking football players are pictured in the slide show in a variety of drills including their 25 minute break during the middle of practice. The music on the slide show was recorded by Katchafire on their CD 'Say What Your Thinking.' The song is WORKING which emphasizes that "Nobody is going to hand it to you" and that you must work to attain any goals you might have.

Practice begins [below] with a dynamic warmup which includes a variety of stretching and running drills.


The bottom picture shows players in a short sprint drill meant to condition the athletes. Conditioning drills are performed early in the practice when the temperatures are cooler.


Former players Maynard Miller, Joe Flister, Clayton Kreger, and Cas Prime volunteer their time to make sure that each group of players gets attention and coaching.
