98 Days 'till Kickoff - #98 Derrick Davis

It's now 98 days until kickoff of Catamount football against the Mars Hill College Lions in E.J. Whitmire Stadium on September 5th in Cullowhee.

To help pass those long summer days until football season officially starts, and to hopefully get the Catamount faithful more excited about the upcoming season, we'll continue the 100 day football countdown each day until kickoff day arrives.
