College Corner
"Shoremen at the Next Level"

September 3, 2006

Andrew Means opened his college football career with a bang on Saturday, snagging a 10 yard TD pass from Blake Powers on Indiana’s opening drive. Means, who was redshirted last year, finished with two catches for 26 yards as the Hoosiers downed Western Michigan 39-20. Congratulations to Andrew from everyone back here in Shoremen country! In Saturday’s other action:

· Means’ old running mate and fellow redshirt freshman Trey Stross caught a pass for six yards, made a tackle on a kickoff, and partially blocked a punt for Iowa as the Hawkeyes beat up on Montana by a score of 41-7. Click here for a photo of the punt block!

· Mount Union strong safety Matt Kostelnik recorded two tackles as the Purple Raiders annihilated Washington & Jefferson 64-7.

· Jon Schroeder carried 11 times for 33 yards as his Ashland Eagles fell to 5^th ranked Saginaw Valley State by a 27-16 count.

On a sadder note, sophomore tackle Ian Pace of Fordham will miss this season after knee surgery. OSU’s fifth year senior LB Mike D’Andrea is also scheduled for a knee operation, on Monday September 11. Prayers & best wishes to both of these guys!
