Football
The varsity football team hosted the Texas Alliance for Christian Athletes on Friday night.

The defense had two early interceptions, one which was returned for a TD by Seun Omonije ’18, and the Lions had a 28-0 lead after 1 quarter. The defense played tough all game and was able to hold TACA scoreless. Final score: Lions 49 – TACA 0. Will Forbes ’18 was 7 for 10 passing with 3 TDs (all of which were to Basu), Colin Neuhoff ’19 led the team in rushing with 85 yards and 1 TD, and Rish Basu touched the ball 4 times on offense (3 receptions and 1 rush) and each time he scored a touchdown.
