2016 Week 9

The miners were back in action today against Texas State. They won handily 77-27, this was the most points given up by the miner defense this year so that's a bit of a let down for this team who had been dominating on both sides of the ball throughout the year. However, all good runs must come to an end. This team will come out of this poor performance on defense. Offensively the miners were led by Chad Roberson the freshmen running back dominated the bobcat's defense rushing and receiving for 200 total yards and 5 Td's. The defense was dominated by Jonte Kirklin who racked up 11 tackles on the day including 3 TFL's and also had an Int return for a Td. This team is really gelling together and starting to create an absolute habit on both sides of the ball. We caught up with Coach Konz after the game and he left us with these parting words, "How bout them, Miners. Today we struggled on the defensive side of the ball so that was something new for us. We will get back into the swing of things this week and get the gold product back on the field that we are used to seeing."
