Doctors still haven’t cleared senior Grambling defensive back Kenneth Anio, so he will not participate in Monday afternoon’s opening spring drills.
Anio said today that he doesn’t expect to get the go-ahead until midway through these sessions, though that decision could come later. If so, Anio expects the GSU staff to hold him out until the [...]
When we last saw Grambling defensive back Nigel Copeland, he was shutting down Southern’s celebrated receiver Jaumorris Stewart — who finished the season-closing Bayou Classic with just three catches.

Grambling’s baseball team, though young on the mound, returns a bevy of veteran players elsewhere from a team that missed out on a chance for the SWAC Tournament title by the slimmest of margins.
“We’ll get leadership from the outfield, and from behind the plate,” said first-year coach James Cooper, a former assistant under departed coach [...]
