Spring Practice Quotes from the local papers

About their plan for their final week of Spring Practice, Mack said:
"We'll finalize some repetitions and we might add a few more things. And we're going to work on some Florida and we're going to work on some Weber State." (HSB)

HSB Note: "The team will be split in two for Thursday's practice, McMackin said, but probably not by offense and defense as usual. Offensive coordinator Ron Lee and defensive coordinator Cal Lee have already drafted their teams for the spring encounter, which will be in a regular-game format rather than offense against defense. McMackin is considering using the practice to let the teams prepare for Saturday."

About splitting the team for Thursday's practice, Mack said:
"We'll split the field in half like we do for offense and defense." (HSB)

HSB Note: "The Warriors have been hit by injuries, particularly at defensive tackle, with Fale Laeli and Rocky Savaiigaea out for the rest of the spring and Josh Leonard dealing with a stomach ailment. But that has allowed more repetitions for New Mexico Highlands transfer Tuika Tufaga."

Praising the 6'3", 285-pound Kahuku graduate Tuika Tufaga, Mack said:
"He's a real pleasant addition. "Physical, strong, competitive. He's had a good spring. With the way we roll in our tackles, it's important for us to have depth there." (HSB)
