"We had a great response to last year's camp, and we're already ahead of where we were last year in terms of registrations and coaches committed to work the camp," said John Loose, Lafayette's defensive coordinator and director of Lauren's First and Goal Football Camp. "This is a great opportunity for the kids to be exposed to college coaching and the whole event is for a great cause." The camp is staffed by coaches representing NCAA Division I, II and III institutions, all of whom will volunteer their time.
