So I'm a bit late on postings again.....but better late than never, right???
So the Northwest Missouri State University Bearcat Football team won their 3rd National Championship!!! This is the 5th year in a row that they have made it to the National Title! The other 2 titles are from 1998 and 1999.
Here are the first couple paragraphs from the press release.
"FLORENCE, Ala.—Northwest Missouri State running back LaRon Council ran for 172 yards and Jake Soy caught a 26-yard touchdown pass in the fourth quarter to lead the Bearcats to a 30-23 win against Grand Valley State in the Division II national championship game Saturday at Braly Municipal Stadium.
It’s the third championship for Northwest (14-1) and first since 1999. It also ends a string of four national runner-up finishes. The Bearcats are the only team to play in five straight championship games.
Bearcat coach Mel Tjeerdsma tied former North Alabama coach Bobby Wallace by winning his third national title. Tjeerdsma’s 29 postseason victories are a Division II record."
I am SO excited and happy for the Bearcat Football team and look forward to next year! I think they will do awesome again, b/c a lot of their main players are all underclassman!
Great Job NWMSU Bearcat Football Team!!!!
