ONE TEAM WAS PLAYING BASKETBALL – “One-sided” doesn’t even BEGIN to describe the game between the SAINT ANDREWS UNIVERSITY KNIGHTS and the visiting POINT UNIVERSITY SKYHAWKS. By Halftime the Knights led the Skyhawks 35-14 and never looked back. From there Saint Andrews U went on to obliterate Point University to the tune of SIXTY-TWO to TWENTY.
ROAD WARRIORS – The (14) ARIZONA CHRISTIAN UNIVERSITY FIRESTORM traveled to face the WAYLAND BAPTIST UNIVERSITY PIONEERS and crushed them 42-7 ### The MAYVILLE STATE COMETS downed their hosts the PRESENTATION COLLEGE SAINTS (should be the Angels) 20-14 ### And the (23) KANSAS WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY COYOTES manhandled the TABOR COLLEGE BLUE JAYS 49-19 in their own house.
ARKANSAS ARMAGEDDON – This was a clash between the OKLAHOMA PANHANDLE STATE AGGIES (should be the Okies) and their hosts – the LYON COLLEGE SCOTS, sometimes called the Notre Dame for people of Scottish descent. Neither team scored in the 1st Quarter but by the break the Scots were up 10-7. That turned into a 17-13 advantage to end the 3rd Quarter before OPSU roared from behind to win the game 27-24.
SHUTOUT – In an example of Defensive Perfection on the gridiron the (18) BENEDICTINE COLLEGE RAVENS took the field against the visiting HASTINGS COLLEGE BRONCOS.

When they merged with Robert Morris U in Illinois they inherited that university’s football team.
