ST. CHARLES, Mo. — The Lindenwood football team (6-2, 1-2 OVC) rolled to a 63-24 win over William Jewell (1-8) on Saturday afternoon from Hunter Stadium in St. Charles, Mo.

Lindenwood opened the scoring on the first drive of the game, as Cade Brister found Payton Rose over the middle for a 16-yard strike, giving the Lions an early 6-0 lead. William Jewell responded on its next drive with a 49-yard field goal, cutting the lead to 6-3. Brister and Rose kept the strong connection going. They would hook up for a 41-yard connection on the next drive. That play drive would finish off by a five-yard score again by Rose. The defense settled in and began creating some havoc. David Whitmore forced a fumble, which was picked up by Tayvian Weary. Weary would bully his way into the endzone for six. Following that defensive drive, the Lindenwood lead grew to 20-3 after one quarter.

Rose and Brister connected for the third time in the half to begin the second quarter. With the score, Rose became Lindenwood’s all-time receiving touchdown leader with 33 career scores. William Jewell kept battling, rattling off the next 14 points in the game to make it 26-17. With under a minute to go, Brister scrambled for a 53-yard score, making it 33-17. The Cardinals answered right back with a late score before halftime.

Lindenwood offense keeps hammering in the second half

The defense started to settle in during the second half, allowing Lindenwood to extend its lead as they allowed just six points for the remainder of the game. Brister found Jeff Caldwell at the 7:41 mark of the third frame. Caldwell nabbed two more touchdown grabs in the second half, as he and Cole Dugger developed a connection.

Logan Siebert nailed a 40-yard field goal early in the fourth quarter. Dugger threw for three touchdowns, including one to Aiden Jones for his first career score. Lindenwood cruised to a 63-24 victory, and fourth-consecutive overall.

“I thought we started fast as we focused on all week,” said head coach Jed Stugart. “With an early lead, we saw how quickly if you lose focus, you can lose momentum. Coming out of halftime, we played focused team football and that was what I was most proud of.”
