ORLANDO - The UCF football team practiced inside the Nicholson Fieldhouse on Thursday afternoon due to the threat of rain. Thursday marked only the third time since preseason camp began on Aug. 12 that the team practiced indoors.
UCF's secondary again looked impressive at practice as senior Travonti Johnson and sophomore Breon Rogers both recorded interceptions during 11-on-11 work.
On Thursday morning, an updated watch list for the Dave Rimington Trophy was announced and UCF senior Cedric Gagne-Marcoux was included. The Rimington Trophy recognizes the most outstanding center in college football and 40 players were named to the watch list.
A 2006 Conference USA Preseason First Team selection, Gagne-Marcoux is one of seven league players on the list. The winner of the award will be honored at a banquet in Lincoln, Neb. on Jan. 13.
UCF practices on Friday from 3:30-5:40 p.m. All Golden Knight practices are now closed to the general public.
