CEDAR FALLS, Iowa – After a brief visit to Wartburg on Saturday, the Northern Iowa football team returned to the UNI-Dome on Monday as the Panthers strapped on the pads for the first time this spring.

Monday's practice was very lively, with a big focus on special teams and positional drills. Sophomore Terrell Carey was the biggest highlight of the day, after making a handful of sensational grabs at wideout.

The 2018 Panthers will return 26 players who made starts on offense and defense for UNI in 2017. Last year's squad earned an 8-5 record and defeated three Top-10 foes on its way to the program's 19th FCS Playoff berth. The Panthers also succeeded on the postseason award's stage, after seven different players earned All-American honors which was the most since 2007.

UNI will practice again on Wednesday, with a time to be announced later.
