“It doesn’t happen too often to have a record fall this early in the season, but Morgan just did an awesome job” Kansas head coach Clark Campbell said. “We have been working with her and tweaked her stroke a bit and she has taken to it really well.”

LOBO FOOTBALL ALUM “MAX JENKINS”
Published October 28, 2011LOBO FOOTBALL ALUM “MAX JENKINS” WILL START AS QUARTERBACK FOR ARMY THIS SATURDAY!!!
WEST POINT, N.Y. – Army quarterback Trent Steelman, who has started every game of his college career, won’t play against Fordham on Saturday at Michie Stadium.
Black Knights coach Rich Ellerson says in a press conference Tuesday that senior Max Jenkins will start for Army (2-5) in place of the junior star, who suffered a lower leg injury late in the first half of Saturday’s 44-21 loss at Vanderbilt.
Steelman hit the ground hard after being sacked. He did not put any weight on his left foot as he was helped off the field and did not return.
Steelman, who has started an academy-record 32 straight games at quarterback, is Army’s second-leading rusher with 576 yards and has a team-high 11 rushing touchdowns.
