E.J. Manuel, who won four bowl games at Florida State University before being selected in the first round of the 2013 NFL Draft by the Buffalo Bills, returned home to Virginia Beach this past weekend to conduct his second free football camp for kids at his alma mater, Bayside High School.
The camp consisted of around 250-300 kids from ages 8-18. They received instruction from a host of current and past players.
Among those in attendance along with Manuel were Hall of Famer Bruce Smith (Buffalo Bills and Norfolk native from Booker T. Washington) former Bayside and ODU defensive back Marquel Thomas; Cox QB and James Madison University signee Cole Johnson; ex-Bayside Head Coach Darnell Moore; current Bayside Head Football Coach Jon White; Kempsville Head Coach Nick Mygas and many more.
