Big Rapids, Mich. - The back-to-back NCAA Division II National Quarterfinalist Ferris State University football program has announced its 2018 "Elite Exposure Satellite Camp Tour" with stops at locations across the state of Michigan slated for this June.

The Bulldogs, under two-time Super Region Coach of the Year Tony Annese, have posted the best overall record of all collegiate programs in the state of Michigan over the past six years and are one of five teams in all of NCAA scholarship football to win at least 11 games each of the past four years.

The Bulldogs along with Northwest Missouri State are the only programs in Division II football to make the playoffs each of the past four seasons.

FSU has posted a 60-14 overall mark in the last six years and the Bulldogs have also posted the best winning percentage of all 21 collegiate programs in the state of Michigan along with the GLIAC since his arrival. Last summer, Hero Sports picked FSU as Michigan's Best College Football program regardless of division.

Ferris State will return nearly 50 letterwinners for the 2018 campaign.
