Entering his 14th season at NAU, Tuesday night's practice at the Skydome was just a bit extra special for Jerome Souers.
Amid a sea of cushioned blue chairs, new suites and new workout facilities, the head coach of the Lumberjack football team was ecstatic to begin fall practice inside the revamped stadium.
"We're really excited about the upgrades in the dome," Souers said. "From the living conditions of the locker room, the training room, the equipment room -- it feels different."
