LSC FOOTBALLThe Lone Star Conference regular season concludes this week with teams competing for seeding in the league playoffs. Texas A&M-Commerce has clinched a share of the LSC title and can win the crown outright with one more victory. Angelo State, Midwestern State, West Texas A&M, and Tarleton State have identical 4-2 records and are tied for second place. The sixth, seventh, and eighth spots are set with Eastern New Mexico, McMurry, and Texas A&M-Kingsville, respectively. Here is a closer look at last week’s games:

• MSU snapped A&M-C’s five-game winning streak with a stunning 40-37 overtime win.• WT got back on the winning track with a 48-21 victory over TAMUK.• ASU captured its second straight contest over ENMU 41-20.• TSU won its third straight game with a 64-7 win over McM.

This week’s schedule includes four conference contests with McM at A&M-C, WT at ENMU, MSU at TAMUK, and ASU at TSU. LSC football teams are 32-28 overall this season. The squads are 5-1 combined versus the Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference, Great Lakes Valley Conference and Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference teams, which are also in NCAA Super Regional Four.

LSC FOOTBALL PLAYOFFSAfter playing seven conference games apiece over the first nine weeks of an 11-week regular season, the Lone Star Conference’s eight football teams will split into two brackets to conduct a two-week conference playoff on November 8 and 15. The conference champion and playoff seeding will be determined by regular season results with the higher seeds hosting each round. The top four teams (No. 4 at No. 1 and No. 3 at No. 2) comprise the championship bracket with Week 10 winners playing for the playoff title in Week 11, whereas Week 10 losers will meet for third place. The other half of the bracket includes the remaining four teams with No. 8 at No. 5 and No. 7 at No. 6 in Week 10. The winners will play for fifth-place in Week 11, while the losers meet in the seventh-place game.

go along with five total touchdowns. The Texan signal caller threw for 197 yards on 15-22 passing with three touchdowns and no turnovers. On the ground, the dual-threat QB amassed 41 yards on 10 carries with two touchdowns. He also converted a two-point conversion on the ground. Strahan has guided the Texans to three straight wins, which is now the longest in the conference, as well as 1,843 total yards of offense and 67.7 points per game. Vernon Johnson, Texas A&M University - Commerce, turned a career-game in the Lions overtime loss at Midwestern State. The senior receiver hauled in a career-high 11 catches for a career-high 180 yards including a 57-yard strike from quarterback Tyrik Rollison on the game’s third play for is lone TD of the game. Johnson leads the Lions in receptions and has turned in four 100-yard receiving games including three straight. Hunter Streuling, West Texas A&M University, tallied two interceptions against Texas A&M-Kingsville Saturday. It led to six points for the Buffs on a pair of field goals in points off turnovers. It was the first two interception game by a Buff this season and first since John McSheffery picked two last season at Midwestern State. Streuling had 10 total tackles for his second double-digit tackle game of the season with nine assisted stops. The two interceptions were the second and third of the season for him as he leads the team in INTs. Seth Bailey, Eastern New Mexico University, led a strong defensive effort by the Greyhounds which only allowed 252 yards of total offense to the Rams. Entering the game, Angelo State had averaged 507 yards per game. Eastern allowed just two third-down conversions in 11 attempts. One of Bailey’s tackles thwarted a fourth-and-one run by the Rams. Cameron Williams, Midwestern State University, pounced on a fumble midway through the fourth quarter to help Midwestern State overcome a 17-point deficit with 10 minutes to play to claim a 40-37 win over No. 22-ranked Texas A&M-Commerce Saturday night at Memorial Stadium. The senior defensive lineman from Giddings forced Ricky Collins to fumble the covered it at the A&M-Commerce 25-yard line to allow MSU to pull to within a single possession at 31-27 with 5:35 to play. Williams finished the game with seven tackles and was in on two tackles for loss and a sack. Davarus Shores, Texas A&M University - Commerce, was all over the field for the Lions. The usually reserve-roled linebacker who excels on special teams had to contribute on the defensive side Saturday for the Lions. He amassed six tackles including two solo stops. He was in the backfield accounting for one and a half tackles for loss and in the secondary batting down a team-high three passes. Shores leads the league and is fourth in the NCAA on block punts on the season. Devin Figures, Tarleton State University, scored the first defensive touchdown of the season for Tarleton State with a momentum-shifting 99-yard fumble return for a score. With Tarleton leading 21-7 with 4:51 left in the first half, McMurry was working on its best drive of the day – having going 69 yards on 14 plays in over six minutes – and was just one yard away from scoring and making it a one-possession game. When the Warhawk running back lost the handle trying to reach for the end zone, Figures was there to scoop up the loose ball and run it the length of the field for a touchdown to extend Tarleton’s lead to 27-7. After that drive, McMurry only managed two more first downs for the entire game. Figures’ fumble return is now the longest fumble return for a touchdown in school history, breaking Ken Jones’ previous record of 85 set against Sam Houston State

on Oct. 9, 2003. Figures also had four tackles and one of four Tarleton interceptions on the afternoon. Figures was a part of the defense that kept McMurry in check to the tune of just 239 yards of total offense for the game. Kevin Reaves, Eastern New Mexico University, registered a 53-yard punt return in the fourth quarter at Angelo State, to set up a Greyhound drive start at the Ram’s 28-yard line. Eastern trailed 28-20 at the time. He also made four tackles in the game. Bubba Tandy, Tarleton State University, continued to give Tarleton a spark in special teams as the sophomore wide receiver returned six kicks for 119 total yards against McMurry last weekend. The bulk of Tandy’s yardage came in the punt-return game with 103 yards on five returns, including a 71-yard return. He also had one kickoff return for 16 yards. Anthony Yancy, Angelo State University, electrified the home crowd on Saturday night by recording his second career kickoff return for a touchdown. The Fresno, Calif., native took the kick at the 3-yard line and found a seam returning it for 97 yards. It is the senior’s second kickoff return touchdown of the year. He is currently tied for the NCAA Division II lead for return TD’s with two and leads the conference in return yards averaging 34.1 yards per game. Mitchell Henton, Midwestern State University, averaged 40.5 yards on six punts with a long of 55 yards while helping Midwestern State claim a 40-37 win over No. 22-ranked Texas A&M-commerce in overtime Saturday nigh at Memorial Stadium. The freshman from Lake Highlands High held the Lions without a return while placing one of his punts inside the 20-yard line. Henton leads the LSC with a 42.3 punting average. Chase Thrasher, Texas A&M University - Commerce, who turned in arguably one of the best performances of his career last week holding the then best kickoff return team in the country, West Texas A&M, at bay was again affective in limiting the MSU offense with poor field position. Thrasher punted four times for the Lions placing three inside the 20-yard line. He also had seven kickoffs with five touchbacks.
