#BCEagles Sports and Alumni Updates
CHESNUT HILL, MASS.— With the first intrasquad scrimmage completed, the Eagles look to week two of camp and are another week closer to Ireland. As the Tuesday workout commenced, Coach Addazio was surprised and pleased with the energy in the room. Most teams begin to get lethargic during this time of preseason camp but Addazio could only praise his team for the effort they continue to show day in and day out.
As camp continues, more and more players are standing out as new, potential weapons to use this upcoming season. While double sessions are in full swing, Addazio acknowledges the benefits of the extended practices but is hesitant on using them.
With that being said, the Eagles offense is making great strides and names such as Chris Lindstrom, Jake Burt and Elijah Robinson are gaining the attention of the media and coaches. The sophomore trio has put the 2015 campaign behind them are looking to breakout this season. Chris Lindstrom has clearly put in work in this off-season and is looking both stronger and wiser and will provided more support on the offensive line.
As for Burt and Robinson, look for them to add more depth to the Eagles passing game with Burt looking to contribute to the tight end core and Robinson looking to pose a threat as a deep ball option.
