OXNARD, Calif. -- The Cowboys ended their final practice Thursday in California in similar fashion to recent training camps.

Three players were given an opportunity to cancel team meetings, the afternoon walk-through and the evening curfew.

All three succeeded.

Quarterback-turned-safety Jameill Showers hit the star on the midfield tower with a throw from roughly 30 yards away, erasing team meetings. The Cowboys celebrated by lifting Showers on their shoulders.

Safety Jeff Heath then made a 25-yard field goal to get rid of the walk-through.

Offensive lineman Dan Skipper ended the trio of challenges by catching a Chris Jones punt.

"I just didn't want to screw it up," said the 6-10 Skipper, "because I knew I wouldn't hear the end of it if I did."

The Cowboys had 16 practices, 14 in pads, during their four-week stay. They head back to North Texas on Friday. To wrap things up, here are 10 camp awards.
