West Texas A&M senior running back Tory Simmons had 133 yards and three touchdowns – two in the fourth quarter – on just nine carries to fuel a 27-19 road win over Angelo State. Simmons’ first TD run was for 44 yards and came in the third quarter to give the Buffs their first lead, 14-12. He then provided WT another lead, 20-19, on a 10-yard run with 8:04 to play. Simmons sealed the Buffs’ first win in San Angelo, Texas, since 2018 with a 49-yard scoring run with 6:14 remaining. His three rushing TDs are tied for the second most in a single game in the LSC this season. Simmons also caught one pass for seven yards.

Central Washington senior linebacker Brycen Indell made 16 tackles – the most in a single game in the conference this season – to help the No. 16-ranked Wildcats record a comeback win over No. 10 Western Oregon. The LSC Preseason Defensive Player of the Year, who had two tackles for loss, helped slow the league’s top offense and hand the Wolves their first loss. Indell and company shut out WOU in the third quarter as they rallied from a 24-17 halftime deficit and took a 31-24 lead.
