JEFFERSON CITY, Tenn. – The Carson-Newman football team will hold its annual Orange and Blue Game Spring Game on Saturday afternoon in Jefferson City.

Kickoff is set for 2 p.m. in Burke-Tarr Stadium.

The Eagles have battled a through a handful of snows, coaching clinics, and next week, spring break, to try and wrap up their “spring” workouts.

“This is one of the most hectic spring schedules we’ve had since I’ve been here,” Eagle head coach Ken Sparks said. “It seems like its snowed half the time we’ve been outside, and when you’re as thin as we are in some places because of graduating seniors and injuries, I expected us to be a little up and down, but this group has been pretty mature about practicing.”

The Eagles finished the 2009 season 11-3, claiming the South Atlantic Conference title and a berth in the NCAA Division II National Semifinals.
