Pat on His Back

Carroll linebacker Owen Koeppen (51) and safety Cody Lamb (19) splashed down Sioux Falls quarterback Lorenzo Brown in the NAIA championship game last Saturday in soggy Rome, Ga. Sioux Falls won 23--7, avenging a 17--9 loss to the Saints in last year's title game.

Harlequins prevailed 19--17 to remain unbeaten and advance to the fifth round.
