Wetumpka wraps up busy summer with UAB camp

File / The Herald Wetumpka coach Tim Perry said he has been pleased with the progress he has seen from the defense during the offseason.

For the third consecutive summer, Wetumpka made some noise during a trip to UAB for the final 7-on-7 camp of the offseason. The Indians have not been happy with their results at camps for most of the summer but that changed when they ran through pool play with an undefeated record before falling to Oxford in overtime in the championship at UAB.

“I think it put additional excitement into the players and the into the coaches,” Wetumpka coach Tim Perry said. “It showed the result of the hard work and improvement the guys have made and that’s always exciting to see those improvements. That’s what you want getting ready to spring board into the season.”
