Tuesday was also the first day of school in Clay County and at Oakleaf High School, coach Frank Garis said he knew his guys would be excited for practice this afternoon. Yesterday, the first day is always hectic, but it is good to have the kids around. I think the kids are excited [to be back in class] but more excited today because they are back in school and seen some people they havent seen in five or six months. The Knights, just like many other high school football teams here in Florida were permitted to begin holding their first practices of the year on Monday. With such a short time frame to prepare for their first game, Garis said he wants to keep things simple for his players.
