For the second straight season, Itawamba Community College will kick off its season against perennial power, Jones County Junior College. Indians head coach Jeff Terrill, who does not bring back a starting skill position player on offense, officially released his programs schedule for the fall which will send his team on the road to face another south half power the second week, defending state champion Gulf Coast, before opening north division play on September 10 against rival Northeast in Booneville.
“We’ve got another challenging schedule this fall, I don’t think there’s any question about that,” said Terrill, whose program has made the post-season in four of the last five years. “But we’ve got some time to get our guys ready for that rugged schedule and I know our staff is looking forward to seeing how some of our prized recruits will mesh with some of the folks we’re bringing back from last year’s team.”
ICC, which finished in third place in the north a season ago (3-3), welcomed back most of its 2009 squad to the Fulton campus on Sunday as they began the second term of summer school on Monday. Itawamba, who has won 27 of its last 38 regular season games, has also scheduled a pre-season scrimmage against Copiah Lincoln Community College on Friday, August 14 at 3:00 at Lambert Stadium in Fulton.
