Current KSU students interested in playing for the varsity football program will have their shot.
KSU will hold tryouts on March 22 at the Perch in the KSU Sports and Recreation park next to Fifth Third Bank Stadium.
“This is an exciting time for Kennesaw State University as we begin the process of evaluating who will be part of history when the Owls take to the gridiron for the first time in 2015,” head coach Brian Bohannon said.
Required paperwork must be submitted in person to the KSU coaches offices at Town Point by Thursday, Jan. 30. The tryout forms are available at ksuowls.com. Prospective players must be enrolled for at least 12 hours and meet the NCAA’s and KSU’s requirements for eligibility.
“We’re looking for individuals who are prepared to win the day in the classroom, on the field and in life,” Bohannon said.
KSU will bring in its first signing class on Feb. 5, when current high school commitments sign their letters of intent to play for the Owls. The team will practice this coming fall before kicking off in its inaugural game next September against East Tennessee State in Johnson City, Tn.
