and was just seven short of the
school record of 80 set by the'
1968 team against Centenary.
"I thought we executed
well," UWA head coach Will
Hall said. "I thought we got bet-

looked sharp. I believe we are
ready for the home stretch. I
would like to see us get on a roll
and I think we are going to.
"It was great to see Jeremy

"It was also great to see

The Tigers scored eight
touchdowns and forced two
safeties in the first half, taking a
59-0 advantage to the locker
