Check out the new Lancers football locker room

The Windsor Lancers Football team has a new locker room to call home.

The football team is excited to move into their new digs. The new-look room has 1,400 more square feet of space and a total of 106 lockers. There's also a space to study, a fueling station, video review space and more. "Mike Circelli is the reason this new addition is possible." said 3rd year defensive lineman Demir Tagani. "He’s one of the greatest and genuine coaches i’ve ever came across. The guys including myself are all completely aware of how fortunate and blessed we are to have this new generational addition to our program. None of us are taking this as a reward, more so as motivation to strive for greatness as a team."

The Lancers open training camp Friday at Alumni Field. Windsor finished 4-4 last fall and clinched a playoff spot for the first time since 2014. They faced the Ottawa GeeGee's but fell short in a high-scoring 43-40 game. Windsor opens the season on the road at McMaster August 26th before hosting Guelph September 3rd in their home opener. "It’s been difficult sleeping at night. I am completely obsessed with this game, I just lay there with my eyes closed visualizing my roles and responsibilities on the field." Tagani said. "I understand our potential as a unit, and i’ve never felt this mutual love as a team like i feel it with this elite group of men. This season we wish to restore hope for the people of Windsor. Go Lancers!"
