BOX SCORE

STERLING, Kan. (SCWarriors.com) – Sterling College football celebrated their seniors before the kickoff of today’s game. 22 players who have given their time and effort were recognized for their years on the team. Sterling ended up losing 23-3 to Kansas Wesleyan University.

Were it not for one big play by the Coyotes, it would be quite likely that it would have been scoreless in the first half. Early in the first quarter, Luke Armstrong got free for a 71 yard run that ended in a score for KWU. That touchdown was the difference in the first half. KWU scored three times in the third quarter to give them the cushion they needed to run out the clock for much of the fourth quarter. The Warriors got on the board late in the fourth quarter when James Henisey knocked in a 29 yard field goal.

Freshman quarterback, Sebastian Moyer, got the start and threw for 106 yards in the game. The big play of the game was a 47 yard catch from Jordan Slocum to Trevor CarrKendrick Bell rushed for 40 yards on 7 carries, while fellow senior, Dylan Reese was the back with the majority of the carries. He got the ball 17 times and had 26 yards. Ryan Stucky was the main target catching 5 passes for 53 yards. James Henisey converted his only field goal attempt of the day.
