SD Mines is going into the bye week following a huge 30-16 road win over Fort Lewis yesterday (10/3/26) afternoon. SD Mines capitalized on their extremely talented backfield, gaining 172 rushing yards and scoring 3 TDs on the ground. The Hardrockers’ rushing defense was just as impressive, as they limited the Skyhawks to just 15 total yards rushing. While SD Mines’ pass game clearly missed WR Joshua Morales, the Hardrockers’ defense stepped up, bringing down 3 interceptions and recovering 2 fumbles, including recovering a fumble in the end zone for a defensive score. Leading SD Mines to the win were: 🏈 Gage Baker, 6 Cmps on 9 Atts for 70 Yds to go along with 15 rushing Yds & 1 rushing TD; 🏈 Dawson Dunbar, 15 Carries for 110 Yds & 2 TDs; 🏈 Ty Harris, 15 Carries for 46 Yds plus 1 Rec for 16 Yds; 🏈 Jadon Lemmons, 6 Tackles (4 Solo & 2 Ast) & 1 INT; 🏈 Lang Gappelberg, 6 Tackles (2 Solo & 4 Ast) & 1 INT; 🏈 Gabe Frerichs, 6 Tackles (1 Solo & 5 Ast) with 1 TFL & 1 Fumble recovery; & 🏈 Charlie Johnson, 5 Solo Tackles. With the win, SD Mines improves to 5-1 on the season and finds themselves in the playoff hunt as they go into the bye week to prepare for the Black Hills Brawl.
