On a brisk fall day at Rosenbloom Field, the Pioneers defeated the pre-season MWC favorite Monmouth Scots 21-7.
The defense and special teams created great field position all day for the Scarlet & Black, but the play of the game was made by quarterback Sam Poulos and receiver Cody Weber. Sometimes improvisation is the best play call!
Players of the week:
Practice: Brendan Ramirez and Nate George - first-year conerbacks that have improved rapidly
Rookie: Sam Poulos - 28-35 for 240 yards and 3 touchdowns
Special Teams: Jake Beecher - mistake-free play and 2 tackles playing on 5 of 6 units
Defense: Colton Feller and David Ternes - combined for 25 tackles and 3.0 TFL
Offense: Morgan Kinsinger - only one "minus" play and Cody Weber - 15 catches for 165 yards and 2 TDs.
