Receiver Hank Hansen (2) gets some
extra yardage before stepping out of bounds
after a reception from Huddy Smith
early in the first half. Hansen is covered
by rising junior Logan Clark (7).

QB Huddy Smith (1) throws to Black team
receivers early in the contest. The unit started
slowly, but then Smith picked up the pace
and completed many on-target spirals
to both Black and White team receivers
in the 7-on-7 format.

Dre Mclees-Walker (far left, on cooler), resting
at halftime, had some spectacular catches
that stood out in Thursday's exercise. Next to him
is Carson Diehl (holding glove), who also
had his moments.

Huddy Smith (1), here talking with a coach
at halftime, threw every pass as he played QB
for both teams in the 7-on-7 format.
He looked effective as the rising junior
heir apparent at the position.

Hank Hansen (7) came on late
to have some spectacular grabs
for TD's in the far left end
of the end zone. Behind him
is fellow receiver Kai Fukuda (4
partially obscured).

Wide receiver Kai Fukuda (4) runs into the far right
corner of the end zone with a Huddy Smith TD bomb
to bring the White team back within seven points
at 21-14 on their first possession in the second half.

Huddy Smith throws early
in the first half. The game started
at about 5:53 p.m. after
some 1-on-1 blocking matchups,
and lasted an hour.
