Centre now up 21-7 over Hanover as the second half starts. The Colonels have totally shut down the Hanover rushing attack (-1 yd so far).

B-SC scores on a pic-6... B-SC 28 - LaGrange 7, mid 4thQ.

awadelewis · September 03, 2011, 03:45:56 PM

Sewanee scores after fumble recovery, score now Sewanee 19 - Earlham 7 w/ 5:59 left in the 3rdQ.

Bunch of nice plays watching the Tigers run the Flexbone.

And we have a final as B-SC defeats LaGrange 28-7. Solid performance from B-SC as they dominate the game stats.

Sewanee's defense starting to push around Earlham a bit as Earlham turns over the ball on downs in their territory. Tigers turn it into a TD and now lead the game 26-7 w/ 1:41 left in the 3rd Q.

Ron Boerger · September 03, 2011, 04:02:03 PM

Looks like a nice W for Sewanee. B-SC you expect to do well, but going to be a nice win for the kids on the Mountain.

Centre is now up 31-15 on Hanover early in the fourth.

awadelewis · September 03, 2011, 04:13:31 PM

Our guys are getting sloppy in the fourth. Turnovers for both teams, Earlham driving middle 4thQ.

awadelewis · September 03, 2011, 04:20:30 PM

Sewanee's defense tighten's up and holds Earlham to a FG. Score now Sewanee 26 - Earlham 10 with 9 minutes left in the game.

awadelewis · September 03, 2011, 04:29:59 PM

Sewanee 32 - Earlham 10. 5:06 4th.

Sewanee scores on a drive after interception.

awadelewis · September 03, 2011, 04:41:52 PM

And it's a final on the Mountain as Sewanee beats Earlham 32-10.

Agreed, nice win for Sewanee. Saw better play out of our offense running the Flexbone and got good defensive play against run. Secondary is going to struggle again this year against the pass.

After being tied at the half, Trinity holds Howard Payne scoreless to win 24-7. Was not able to watch any of it, unfortunately.

Desmond King had 91 yds on 14 carries to lead the Tigers; Nyk McKissic was 10-15 for 154 yards and a TD to Jon Osei-Kuffour (60 yds on three receptions). Von'Darrick Jones had a 78-yard pick six for Trinity.

Howard Payne was outgained by a 288-135 margin. Trinity's Nick Darling led all defenders with 15 tackles (six solo, two for loss), forcing two fumbles along the way.

EDIT: Here's the Brownwood Bulletin's game writeup. The SAEN provided, as expected, a two sentence 'story.'

Good win for the Tigers. Sounds like a workman like effort on offense and taking advantage of opportunities on defense. The game against TLU should be interesting. Hopefully having them at home will help.

With two scholarship programs now in San Antonio, Trinity should be lucky even to have a score posted. As far as the San Antonio Express-News is concerned, if you don't "pay" people to play, you're not worth much ink.

Great W for Tigers their first home win since 2008. Best of luck vs. W & L!
