Giving LC a place to practice

Heavy rains creating flooding in Alexandria also inundated Pineville and left the Louisiana College football team without a field to practice on today and Thursday. Nearby Deville collected almost 20 inches of rain.

The Wildcats couldn't practice on campus or at nearby Pineville HS, so they cruised up I-49 and followed the Demons on the turf at Turpin Stadium Wednesday evening. They will practice again Thursday in early afternoon before the NSU team hits the turf for a 3:10 workout.

Both teams are on the road this weekend. The Demons head to Baylor. The LC Wildcats open their season at Bacone College in Muskogee, Okla., about an eight-hour bus ride from home, according to head coach Dennis Dunn.
