Virginia Union Top Contender for Redskins Training Camp Locale
Written by HBCU Digest, Posted in Virginia, Virginia Union University
The Washington Redskins will tour Virginia Union University on Sunday as part of its search for a new training camp site.
VUU is the top contender for the relocation, and says attracting the Redskins would bring about renovations to the school’s two practice fields.
One high ranking official at the university said the Redskins would be a welcomed addition to campus, but also that the renovations to get Redskins ready would be expensive.
Fields and gym facilities would likely have to be entirely replaced. Even so, officials feel the improvements made for an NFL training camp would be lasting ones for the students of the Division 2 football school.
