Trailing 17-0 with just over ten minutes in the fourth quarter, Midland University rallied on the road with 25 points over the final seven minutes to upset No. 14 Dordt University, 25-24, on Saturday afternoon.
On the final play of regulation, facing a four-man rush, EJ Stewart lofted the ball up into the corner of the endzone for Kenneth Carr for a touchdown
Down by one, instead of kicking the extra-point to send the game to overtime, the Warriors went for two to try and win it and Steward found Austin Harris for the two-point conversion, and the win.
Midland (1-1, 1-0 GPAC) will turn its attention now to No. 2-ranked Northwestern (2-0, 1-0 GPAC). They won their conference opener against Hastings College, 45-13, on Saturday. The kickoff between the Warriors and Raiders is set for 1:00 p.m. at Heedum Field in Fremont, Nebraska on Saturday, September 11. The game will be broadcast on Big Dog Country, 98.9 FM and 1340 AM.
