Geography and Sociology 4 THE ANTELOPE SPORTS THE WEEK OF OCTOBER 9, 2003 Lopers snag Homecoming victory by Byrone Bell Antelope Staff Writer

Turnovers were the deciding factor in Saturday's homecom- ing game. The Nebraska- Kearney defense forced five Adams State turnovers, includ- ing a crucial fumble late in the game to help seal the win and keep the Lopers alive to defend their RMAC championship. The Lopers defeated the Grizzlies 23-17. Kearney, playing in their first home game since a 32-24 loss to the University of Nebraska-Omaha, had a lot to prove in front of a crowd of 4,076. Going into halftime tied at ten, UNK converted three Adams State turnovers into 13 points to take a 23-10 advan- tage with just under nine min- utes left to play. The Grizzlies backup quar- terback Scott Coxon ran 43 yards for a touchdown to cut the Loper lead to six with seven minutes left to play. UNK, unable to run out the clock or put points on the board, was forced to punt. Dustin Bohl, Oxford freshman, buried Adams State on their two-yard line with three minutes left to play in the game. Adams State managed to get out of the situation with a 30- yard pass to wide out Bryan Bohanon who broke one tackle and began running towards the end zone, but Nebraska's Division II Player of the Week Photos by Quincy Cromer See Football, page 7 Top: Jesse Calabretto goes for a strong takedown, Lower Left: Justin Weller tops off a tackle, Lower Right: Mike Miller faces a blockade of Adams State defenders
