EVANSTON, Ill. - After reporting to campus Sunday, Aug. 7, Northwestern moves its preseason camp to Kenosha, Wis., for 12 full days of practice. This is the 14th straight year the Wildcats have held part of their preseason camp at the University of Wisconsin-Parkside campus.

Northwestern then returns to Evanston Aug. 23 to prepare for its Sept. 3 opener vs. Ohio (11 a.m., ESPNU). The following is Northwestern's practice schedule. (All practices take place at the UW-Parkside, unless otherwise noted.)
