Not bad for a guy who had open-heart surgery his senior season in high school. On the other hand, the Vikings’ Stu Gaussoin is the nation’s leading receiver. He has caught 90 passes for 1,132 yards and 8 TDs. Hard, who has 41 less catches, is still ranked second in the nation.

They recently received national attention in a three-page spread in Sports Illustrated’s latest issue. Lomax’s assault on the record books has not gone un noticed either by the media, or more than likely, the playoff committee. If PSU doesn’t get the playoff nod, it could go to the winner of the N orthern Arizona-Nevada-Reno game Nov. 24th in Flagstaff. But, league champion M ontana State can’t be counted out either. The Bobcats won the Big Sky Con ference title with a 6-1 record, however they dropped their season finale last week GRIZZLY defensive back Greg Dunn has started every game the past fourseasons at UM. 2 'e;ds-h o n o u r r i b u t i o n ^ s u p p o r t IHE UNIVERSITY OF MONTANA THROUGH Your gift is needed to provide for Academic Scholar University Equipm Faculty Research The Mansfield Alumni Programs Presidential Proj For more information contact: Allan M.
