Gallery: Wildcats prepare for regular season in football scrimmage

August 25, 2019 by David Mitchell

In their final scrimmage, the Wildcats showed great potential for the upcoming season. The offense led by junior quarterback Luke Anthony was very in sync and the defense forced two turnovers. After a long offseason, the Wildcats are preparing for their season opener against UNT on Saturday.

Several ACU students were removed from the seating behind the Utah Valley bench late in the fourth quarter while arguing with UVU fans. After a conversation with ACUPD and other staff members, they were relocated to the stands near the UVU bench on the south baseline.
