With only 15 guys to the 30 of Rice, our players simply ran out of gas. Rice was able to capitalize on transition opportunties throughout the entire second half, forcing Jurica to take point blank shots. Marc Harrison, was able to score two goals in the third quarter to round out SU scoring for the day, but it was to little for a team that lost most of its steam by halftime. Rice finished the game with several goals despite Jurica's impressive effort to win by a score of 16-6. Rice simply outplayed the guys in a game which all feel would have been a lot closer if everyone would have been able to play.
Many guys deserve credit for hustling to the end.
Kent Sholars, filled in admirably at defense for injured David Coleman, and all our middies stepped up there play and fought for ground balls. The Bucs travelled back in preparation for their last home game of the year against TCU, a team the Seniors have never beat.
