"We wanted to set a tempo not only with our fall practices in how we compete against each other, but also against other opponents early on. The scrimmage against Elon is a great opportunity for us to get the competitive juices flowing at another level against a quality CAA opponent."
Â
The fall will get started with the a home game. ECU will host Elon on Saturday, September 21st at 11 a.m. That game will take place in Johnson Stadium and admission will be free for all fans.
