HATTIESBURG, Miss. (WDAM) - The University of Southern Mississippi’s DuBard School for Language Disorders welcomed USM football players Friday.

The annual preseason visit was all part of Black & Gold Day at the school.

Players were joined by Golden Eagles cheerleaders, USM’s mascot, Seymour, and first-year Head Football Coach Charles Huff.

“For us to have such a resource (DuBard School) on campus, I couldn’t be more proud to be a part of it,” Huff said. “I’ve been looking forward to this day for a long time.”

Players signed autographs and Oak Grove High School graduate Malachi Henderson read to students.

“I just wanted to read,” Henderson said. “I just wanted to give the kids something to think about, because that’s something very special they’ll think about forever.”
