Football: 4-3, 2-1 in IAC
In a highly competitive, physical game played in unseasonably warm temperatures, STA outlasted St. Stephen’s & St. Agnes 14-13. The Bulldog defense came up with several big stops in their own territory including a last-minute drive, in which they forced the Saints to attempt a 57-yard field goal that fell just short.
