Tonight's 50-3 win was the definition of a team victory. No one person's stats were gaudy, but defense, offense and special teams all fed into each other. Proud of our team.

dominated the last 50 minutes and won 24-14. We held TLU to about 120 yards during those 50 minutes. Our players believed in themselves and each other. Well done, gentlemen!

Excellent team game today. Took a little bit of everything, and everyone, to beat TLU 51-33 on the road. Great 1st season in the ASC. No one (but us) thought we would be a top 3 team in the SEC of Division III.

is now 1-0 in the ASC and 2-0 overall. Defense held McMurry to just over 200 yards and 6 points while the offense put up 551 yards and 37 points without three all-ASC players. Work to be done before we play again next Saturday, but many good things to build on.

So...
@_NikKelly_
has scored at least one defensive or special teams touchdown in every game he has played in as a pro. I'd say the Albershausen Crusaders made a good midseason pick up by getting him.
