The West Georgia Wolves have had a doozy of a road trip, not playing a game in the friendly confines of Grisham Stadium since the first game of the season on August 26. Since that time, the Wolves have traveled over 2600 miles, playing three different opponents with a combined record of 11-4 on the season. Last week, West Georgia's trip took them to Arkadelphia, AR, to take on the Henderson State Reddies. The Wolves mustered three field goals off of the foot of freshman kicker Casey Hale, but a late Reddie touchdown proved to be the game-winner, as HSU took the 16-9 victory. Against the Reddies, the Wolves faced a running quarterback in Garrett Manning, who rushed for 126 yards against West Georgia. In the Bison, UWG takes on the top running back in the Gulf South Conference in Kyle Wess.

Canella, courtesy of Daniel L. Schafer and www.unfedu.floridahistoryonline, digitally manipulated. LOWER SJR REPORT 2016 Preface The State of the River Report is the result of a collaborative effort of a team of academic researchers from Jacksonville University, University of North Florida, Jacksonville, FL, Valdosta State University, Valdosta, GA, and Florida Southern College, Lakeland, FL. The report was supported by the Environmental Protection Board of the City of Jacksonville and the River Branch Foundation. The purpose of the project is to review various previously collected data and literature about the river and to place it into a format that is informative and readable to the general public. The report consists of four parts – the website (http://www.sjrreport.com), the brochure, the full report, and an appendix. The brochure provides a brief summary of the status and trends of each item or indicator (i.e., water quality, fisheries, etc.) that was evaluated for the river. The full report and appendix were produced to provide more to those interested. In the development of these documents, many different sources of data were examined, including data from the Florida Department of Environmental Protection, St. Johns River Water Management District, Fish and Wildlife Commission, City of Jacksonville, individual researchers, and others.
