UCF IN ST. PETERSBURG: TUESDAY EVENING | TUESDAY AFTERNOON
The first half of Wednesday saw the Knights getting down to business in St. Petersburg as the team held a practice at Gibbs High School which pleased head coach George O'Leary.
The first of our two daily SportsKnight online video installments shows the team's practice session and includes some sound bites from tailback Brynn Harvey, a native of Pinellas County.
UCF has offensive and defensive unit meetings during the early afternoon before this evening's social event, the Party at the Pier and we'll be there to bring you a full recap of the festivities there.
