This Saturday the Utica Pioneers scrimmaged St. Lawrence U in their final tune-up until Saturday’s home opener against Becker College. Mike played in both the JV and Varsity scrimmages. He mostly played Special Teams for the Varsity squad and also received reps at Corner for the most of the second half. Utica beat St. Lawrence 12 – 6.
In other news Mike is no longer #3. He will be wearing #38 for Utica (#7 in Practice Jerseys).
New beginnings mean new changes! Welcome to the NEW Mike Lykos 3 Website! We’ve ditched the old red and black days of HHH High School East (good riddance!!) and we’ve embraced the orange and blue of Utica College!
A new addition to the site is the ability to “tweet” with Mike. His twitter information is available on the right sidebar. Also, the 2009 Utica College Football Schedule is now available to view on the SCHEDULE PAGE.
As you can see the Pioneers are scrimmaging St. Lawrence U this Saturday (8/28), so if you’re in the upstate NY area come check out Mike and the rest of the team!
Mike is excited to be a Corner Back for the Pioneers and can’t wait for the season to start. And as they say in Utica … FEAR THE MOOSE!!
This weekend Mike reported to Utica College’s Football Training Camp. We will post updates from Mike about camp from time to time. For now here is Mike’s upcoming schedule with the Utica Pioneers! Fear the Moose …

For this year’s “preseason” the T-Birds had two scrimmages. Mike played excellent in both! The first scrimmage was at the Jamboree Scrimmage at Jericho High School. In that scrimmage Mike solely played defense. It is not yet known whether Mike will play FS or CB this year, but he will be in either starting position in the secondary. In the second scrimmage Mike played both defense and offense, but was held back a bit on offense due to the harsh weather conditions that day. Some pictures from the Jamboree Scrimmage are now available on the Pictures page.
If the scrimmages are any indication of the 2008 season it is this, Mike Lykos is definitely the main weapon on the Hills East varsity team. He will be starting both offense (WR), defense (CB or FS), and special teams (KR & PR). Mike is looking foward to the season opener versus Smithtown West this Friday Night, Sept. 12th, at 6:00 pm. FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTSSSS!!
See you all then!
