Bolivar, Mo. – The SBU football team sent off 11 seniors in their final home game of the season as they took on the Quincy Hawks. The Bearcats and their seniors took over the game and won by a score of 42-24. That win moves them to 5-5 (3-2 GLVC) on the season.
 
"I was extremely proud of how our guys competed today. It wasn't a complete 60 minutes of football in all three phases, but they handled adversity well and came out on top." Head Coach Robert Clardy said, "Our seniors have invested so much into our program, so it was great to send them out on their last home game victorious."
 
Senior Cooper Callis finished the game with nearly 500 total yards. He had over 370 passing yards and 100 rushing yards with four passing touchdowns. Kylan Herrera finished the game with 116 total receiving yards on only 2 receptions with 1 touchdown. Despite finishing with over 500 yards of offense, the Bearcats had six fumbles on the game, losing three of them.
 
"Offensively we made some uncharacteristic mistakes and put our defense in bad positions. We have to clean that up this week in practice and get back to disciplined football if we want to close this season out on a three-game win streak," -Clardy said.
 
The Bearcats will look for their first three game win streak since 2016 next week as they battle the Missouri S&T Miners. The game will take place in Rolla, Missouri at Allgood-Bailey Stadium with an expected kickoff of 1:00 PM.
