Final in Abilene: Trinity 44 - McMurry - 0
Trinity finished with 531 yards of offense to McMurry's 265. Looks like Trinity is going to trot out another sub 5'10 QB as their starter - Messex finished 8-18 for 161 and two TDs. Running game really shined tonight as Trinity went to their traditional I-formation ground and pound, finishing with 287 overall, and led by Evan McDowell with 129 yards. Pleasant surprise to see Sophomore WR Chris Stewart lead the game in receiving yards with 119, with one long play early in the second for 80 yards. Last year's leading receiver for Trinity, Tommy Lavine, held to just 23 yards. Based on this game, it would appear Trinity is going to rely even more on their ground game this year, which should actually work out okay given their size on the O-line and their depth at RB.
Defense also looked stout. Could be the best season for the Tigers since their last truly good year in 2011 when they won the conference championship. Won't get too ahead of myself though...
