ELON, N.C. -- Just minutes before the Elon football team was to hold its first scrimmage of the preseason, the thunder rolled and lightning strikes lit up the sky. Soon after the rains came.
The thunderstorms forced the postponement of the scrimmage until 3 p.m. on Monday. Head coach
Jason Swepson also announced changes to the schedule for Tuesday and Wednesday. The Phoenix will now practice just once at 3:40 p.m. on Tuesday before holding a two-a-day on Wednesday with sessions at 8:25 a.m. and 6:10 p.m. Thursday's schedule is still being determined.
