MORGANTOWN, W.Va. – West Virginia University will hold the annual Gold-Blue spring football scrimmage Saturday, April 19, at Mountaineer Field at Milan Puskar Stadium. Kickoff is set for 12:30 p.m.
The mid-day intrasquad scrimmage will conclude WVU’s spring football drills. The Gold and Blue will be WVU’s offensive and defensive units. Scoring will be determined by scoring plays and first downs for the offense, and defensive stops, turnovers and touchdowns for the defense.
Once again this year, there will not be an autograph session following the game, and fans will not be permitted on the field. Mountaineer Football will conduct its annual Fan Day in August with details being released later this summer.
Tickets are available at the game and admission is $5. WVU students will be admitted free with a valid ID. Stadium parking is open except for the lot directly in front of Ruby Memorial Hospital. Again this year, proceeds from the Gold-Blue Game will benefit WVU Children’s Hospital. The Mountaineers have donated $493,102.26 to Children’s Hospital during the past 23 years.
