CMU coach John Bonamego announced today that starting defensive end Blake Serpa will miss the season opener on Thursday with a hamstring injury.
The injury must be recent, as he was on the practice field just a week ago. It's a big loss for the CMU defense as he garnered All-MAC preseason honors earlier this summer.
Luckily, the CMU defense is the strong point of the team and do have some depth in the front seven, but it's never good when you lose a leader like Serpa for the opening game. The hope is that he will be ready to go in week 2 against Monmouth.
