2009 UNLV FOOTBALL CAMP WAS A SUCCESS
AS WE HEADED TO UNLV NOT KNOWING HOW WE WOULD PLAY OR EVEN COMPETE AGAINST SOME EXCELLENT COMPETITION. WE STARTED OUT SLUGGISH IN OUR FIRST CONTACT AGAINST 3 TIME SUNRISE REGION RUNNER-UP DEL SOL, BUT WE MANAGED TO PUT THAT QUICKLY BEHIND US AS WE ROSE TO EVERY OTHER CHALLENGE WE CONFRONTED. AS CAMP MOVED ON WE WERE ONCE AGAIN BATTLING WITH DEL SOL, AND ALL OF THE OTHERS LIKE CIMARRON-MEMORIAL, VACAVILLE (CA), CLARK, SILVERADO, CHEYENNE, LEONE (SAMOA), MT. HOME (IDAHO), TAFUNA (SAMOA).OUT OF THE GATES OUR BLAZERS BATTLED WITH ALL OF THE COMPETITION WHICH MAKES US FEEL GOOD GOING INTO THE UPCOMING SEASON.
