Sam Houston Football - Page 2 LAST WEEK S STARS IN McNEESE VICTORY Southland 2011 Offensive Player of the Year Richard Sincere (who was slowed early in the season with a nagging injury) exploded back on to the scene Saturday with 12 carries for 132 yards including TD scampers of 44 and 65 yards. The junior produced 155 all-purpose yards for Kat offense rolled up 348 yards rushing and 541 total offense against the nation s No. 2 rushing defense. With Sincere gaining 132 yards rushing and Timothy Flanders picking up his 19th 100-yard performance with 105 yards, the game marked the fifth time in SHSU history the Kats have had two 100-yard rushers in the same game. Defensive tackle J. T. Cleveland led a Bearkat defense that allowed McNeese State just 210 yards total offense and 79 yards rushing. After a field goal with 9:47 in the second quarter, the Kats shut out the Cowboys the rest of the game. McNeese netted just three yards on the ground and only 90 yards total offense in the second half. Cleveland totaled three tackles for losses including back-to-back QB sacks on a fourth quarter drive. He ended the night with seven tackles. Wide receiver Trey Diller totaled 135 all-purpose yards, returning a 44-yard kickoff return that set up the Bearkats go-ahead touchdown drive in the second quarter. His 20-yard punt return set up the first SHSU TD drive. Diller had caught three passes and fielded five Mc- Neese punts in traffic to help SHSU win the field position war. BEARKAT NOTES Sam Houston s 45-10 victory over McNeese marked the first time in the Kats have defeated the Cowboys in back-to-back calendar years. The win was SHSU s ninth over McNeese in 34 meetings. The 35-point margin also was a record in series history.
