The Missouri Southern football team will welcome fans into Fred G. Hughes Stadium for the first time in almost 17 months as the Lions will take part in the Green and Gold Scrimmage this Saturday afternoon.
The Lions are under first year head coach Atiba Bradley. Southern got a win in its only spring contest this year as the Lions defeated Southern Nazarene 21-20 back in mid-March.
The team will be broken down into two rosters that were chosen draft style with one team wearing Green and the other wearing White.
Gates will open at noon with the kickoff set for 1:25 pm from Fred G. Hughes Stadium. The game will consist of four, 15-minute quarters with the first half being timed normally. The second half will feature a running clock unless the score difference is seven or less in the last four minutes of the game.
There will be a five-minute halftime where the Southern Cheer Squad will perform for the crowd.
Admission is free and there will be donation boxes at the front of the of the stadium where we will be collecting donations of non-perishable food items for the Lion Co-Op.
