Xander Le Roux is current a cornerback for the Dallas Birddogs of the DSFL. For a fun practice after a resounding 2-0 double header day, Coach JReed had the offense and defense swap sides of the ball. All positions would be drawn out of a hat and then there would be a scrimmage between the sides of the ball. Xander was naturally hoping he would pick wide receiver, as every cornerback's dream is to play wide receiver, they just aren't as good at catching. Xander actually drew running back out of the hat and had a blast. His natural speed was a huge asset for the defense playing offense, and he even got a chance to showcase his hands on a few screen plays and a check down that he took for a nice gain. The defense turned offense beat the offense turned defense in a close 21-17 game, and got out of conditioning at the end of practice as a reward!
