Nebraska-Omaha’s running backs have been a major headache for the Mavericks all season. On Saturday, they were a headache for Missouri Western.
Bryce Hawthorne rushed for 137 yards and two touchdowns, while Duane Bowen rushed for 113 and another score in a 30-21 victory against the Griffons at Spratt Stadium.
“I knew we had some talented guys backing up,” said Nebraska-Omaha coach Pat Behrns, who saw two running backs leave the team before the third game and has had three others injured. “Those two guys playing today were both hurt throughout the course of the year. (Hawthorne) had a high ankle sprain for about four weeks, and Duane Bowen had a separated shoulder.”

MARYVILLE, Mo. — Central Missouri scored first Saturday, but Northwest Missouri State answered with a pace the Mules never matched.
The Bearcats’ offense scored on five of their first six possessions — four of the drives took less than 2 minutes — and overwhelmed the Mules 56-14 in front of 6,600 people at Bearcat Stadium.
“We want to push the tempo — roll, roll, roll,” said Northwest left tackle Dane Wardenburg. “That’s our big thing. And it worked.
“They were getting tired. You saw it happen.”

Calloway earns 5th-round TKO in "Final Conflict"
by Marshall White

The details of his “Final Conflict” didn’t go as planned, but St. Joseph boxer Rob Calloway still ended his career the way he wanted: with a knockout.
Calloway claimed a technical knockout of heavyweight Clinton Boldridge in the fifth round Saturday at Civic Arena.
Calloway, the 40-year-old St. Joseph fighter who planned Saturday’s card as his retirement bout, originally planned to fight Darrin Humphrey. But Humphrey didn’t show up for the Friday weigh-in, so Calloway turned to Boldridge as a late replacement. Boldridge (9-14) is a heavyweight who weighed in at more than 240 pounds. Calloway fought at 204.

Sometimes parity can be a good thing. Early in the season, the possible 8-man outcome appeared pretty cut-and-dry. Mound City looked incredible during beatdowns against St. Joseph Christian and Stanberry ... PICK ’EM BLOG: 11-man regionals
