IUP will wrap up three weeks of spring drills Saturday night at 6 p.m. with its annual spring game at George P. Miller Stadium.

Admission cost is $5 and students with a valid I-card will be admitted free. Portions of the ticket sales will be donated to charity, including "Hearts for the Hungry" which helps feed starving children in Haiti.

IUP football players have been selling tickets as have members of the Indiana High School Key Club.

The game will be comprised of four 12-minute quarters. The Gray team will feature the first team offense and second team defense, with the reverse making up the Crimson team.

IUP is coming off a 9-3 season which included the team's first appearance in the NCAA Division II playoffs in five years. The Crimson Hawks defeated West Chester in the first round before losing to Shepherd in the Northeast Region semifinals.

The 2008 regular season gets under way September 6 at C.W. Post. The home opener is September 20 against Lock Haven in the annual Hall of Fame Game.
