Below are all the sights, sounds, and observations from Tuesday’s practice. 

Boston College Training Camp Day 5 Notebook

  • Both Dylan Lonergan and Grayson James threw on Tuesday in 7v7 and 11v11. Lonergan looked to have the stronger day and both are showing big improvements. 
  • Wide receivers Luke McLaughlin and Jaedn Skeete both looked to be improving with McLaughlin scoring a touchdown. Lewis Bond did not practice today and a lot of freshmen got reps, including Dawson Pough, Ned Boldin Jr. and Semaj Fleming. 
  • Freshman running backs Bo MacCormack III and Mekhi Dodd both scored on Tuesday morning. 
  • As for linebackers, Daveon Crouch and Bryce Steele both looked good. Crouch recorded an interception on a pass by James, intended for tight end Ty Lockwood and Steele has been excellent at stopping the run. 
  • Freshman Andy Quinn had an impressive punt which was downed by Charlie Comella at the 1-yard line. 
  • Another interesting note: For Boston, Boston College’s fight song, was played on the speakers throughout practice. 
  • After practice, Eagles head coach Bill O’Brien confirmed that former Eagles tight end Kamari Morales has joined the staff in the recruiting department.
