On defense, watch out for corner Mychal Traylor, who had a strong game against U-Mary with an interception. Also watch for Greg Lofquist, who leads the NSIC in tackles this season and has put together a strong season in 2014. On offense, Talo Pascal got going late Saturday against U-mary with 11 carries for 50 yards. Freshman quarterback Travon Hearns could be used Saturday and gave UMC a spark going 5-of-9 with 51 yards through the air.
