FOOTBALL 101 PHOTO GALLERY

SAN DIEGO - With only 10 days remaining until the 2008 home opener, the Aztec football team logged its second-to-last two-a-day practice on Wednesday at the on-campus workout facility. SDSU ended the day with a two-minute drill, as the defense held off the offense when cornerback Vonnie Holmes made a spectacular one-handed interception in the end zone on the final play.

After the workout, the Aztec coaching staff took part in the second annual Football 101 for Women in the Aztec Hall of Fame auditorium. The clinic gives participants the opportunity to learn the basics of the game in a relaxed setting and experience football first hand.

"This is one of our ways of giving back," said SDSU head coach Chuck Long. "We go through some basic film study and run through plays out on the field. We all have a great time (at this event)."

The Aztecs will have a single afternoon practice on Thursday, followed by their final two-a-day of fall camp on Friday.
