Arizona State has announced the dates of its return to Camp Tontozona after not practicing at the venue last year due to the installation of an all-weather playing surface.

The Sun Devils will travel to Tontozona on August 5 and practice once a day from August 6-10, with a public scrimmage on the morning of Saturday, August 10, with the time to be announced at a later date. All practices are open to the public.

This will be the first practices at the camp under second-year ASU coach Herm Edwards. It will also be the first year with a synthetic grass field since the Sun Devils began practicing at the venue in 1960.

Last year the program announced in mid-July that it had canceled its 2018 trip to the rustic venue located approximately 90 miles northeast of Tempe. Edwards took the team to the camp for a single day for bonding exercises and to climb "Mount Kush," named after legendary former coach Frank Kush, who started the tradition of holding camp at Tontozona.

"One of the many reasons I returned to college football is because of great traditions like Camp Tontozona," Edwards said in a press release. "I'm anxious to take our Sun Devil team to the legendary place where it all began with Coach Frank Kush's vision and hard work. It's the perfect setting for our coaches, players and staff to bond and get quality work accomplished. The newly-completed turf field will ensure that we accomplish quality work on a daily basis."

ASU practiced for at least a portion of its camp at Tontonzona from 1960-2008 until a hiatus under then-coach Dennis Erickson. It returned under former coach Todd Graham when he took over the program ahead of the 2012 season.

This will be a particularly important Camp Tontozona for the Sun Devils because they'll spend at least the first part of August trying to identify a quarterback replacement for outgoing starter Manny Wilkins. Junior Dillon Sterling-Cole will continue to battle freshmen Jayden Daniels, Ethan Long and Joey Yellen after their competition began with 15 practices in February.

Installation of ASU's new field is complete, with the program releasing photos of the new playing surface in its Wednesday press release.
