Concordia-Selma Hornets prepares for first football practice



SELMA, Alabama  --  Entering his first full season as head coach at Concordia College Alabama, Don Lee cannot wait for football season to arrive.

“I’m excited. I get to start a team fresh,” Lee said. “Starting off in the springtime, we came in and we put in our system, but now it is good going into the season to see how well your system can be executed.”

The Hornets will start two-a-days Aug. 4, which will give Lee his first look at his team since spring practices.

After taking over as head coach following the third game last season, Lee led Concordia to a 6-3 record.

He said he fought the urge to change up the offensive and defensive schemes to what he likes to do when he took over in 2012, because he knew it would disrupt the Hornets’ season. Instead, he used last season to evaluate the talent on the roster to see what he had to work with.

“It was an opportunity for us to evaluate a lot of things; evaluate the system, evaluate the players and then come into spring ball and see what fits into your system,” Lee said.

Lee’s pass heavy, Air Raid offensive system will give opponents little time between plays, while his defensive schemes are based around applying a lot of pressure to opposing offenses to force turnovers.
