Scots nip Norbert 28-20
TIn the last two seasons, Monmouth suffered its only two conference losses to the St. Norbert Green Knights, which has cost them their first ever NCAA playoff berth. The Scots lost to the Green Knights last season 55-19, which became their only loss in their impressive 9-1 season. “We’ve never had our best game with them. If we play out best game against them, there’s no doubt in my mind we can’t beat them,” said Coach Steve Bell. This year, the Green Knights played a talented, more experienced Monmouth team, with senior quarterback Mitch Tanney running the offense, and senior linebacker Justin Zigler controlling the defense. “We really don’t have to say anything to these guys. Our kids are smart enough to know what this game means,” added Bell. Read More...
