DC Tuning Up for Regular Season with an Intrasquad Scrimmage

DEFIANCE, OHIO -- The Defiance College football team opened up the gates to Justin F. Coressel Stadium to give the fans their first look at the 2017 Defiance College football team on Saturday afternoon.

This gave the fans, as well as first year head coach Aaron Mershman, their first glance at who may emerge as the main contributors towards improving on the team's 5-5 mark from 2016.

The Yellow Jackets have one final tune-up scheduled, as Olivet (Mich.) will come to town next Saturday afternoon at 1 p.m. This is all in preparation for Saturday, Sept. 2 as the football season kicks off with a home contest against Baldwin Wallace.
