Hicks Breaks SNU Tackles Record

Southern Nazarene drops a 31-14 game to Southeastern Oklahoma State

Box Score BETHANY, Okla. — Michael Hicks set Southern Nazarene's school record for tackles in a career as the junior had 12 tackles in a 31-14 loss to Southeastern Oklahoma State.
 
Hicks needed just seven tackles to surpass Chris Bogle's (2000-03) 274 career tackles and Hicks finished the day with 280. However for Hicks, his season came to an end as he suffered a season-ending injury. The injury actually came at East Central, but Hicks wanted to get one more home game in before the season ended.
 
Jarod Martin and Dylan Terry each had season highs as Martin totaled 122 yards in receiving while Terry had 276 yards passing. Martin had eight catches and a touchdown reception. Terry was 29-for-56 passing and threw the one touchdown to Martin. Brian Yenor nearly had his second straight 100-yard rushing game as the freshman had 99 yards on 16 carries. He also scored his first career touchdown.
 
Hicks and Blake Cavill led the way on the defensive side as Cavill had a game-high 15 tackles. Hicks also had 1.5 tackles for a loss of three yards and a fumble recovery. Christo Lisika had two sacks and forced a fumble. Konner Bent also had an interception.
 
Neither team scored until the 5:31 mark in the first half when Southeastern took a 7-0 lead. The Savage Storm (2-4, 2-3 GAC) pushed it to 14-0  early in the second quarter before Southern Nazarene got on the board with 4:41 left in the half when Terry hit Martin for a 20-yard strike to complete a 9-play, 62-yard drive to make it 14-7.
 
SOSU led 21-7 with 2:28 in the half when SNU went on a 58-yard drive that was capped by Yenor's three-yard run on third and goal. The Storm trailed just 21-14 at the half, but it was all Southeastern in the second half as it shut out SNU in the final 30 minutes of play.
 
The loss drops SNU to 0-6 on the year.
 
The Crimson Storm now get set to host Southern Arkansas, Saturday, for a 2 p.m. GAC contest.
