The Mid-South DIA college conference continued its string of very close games, with Lindenwood just getting past Davenport 20-16 Saturday in the Charles Labry Memorial match between the two rivals.
The teams were deadlocked 10-10 before two JP Eoff conversions put Davenport up 16-10 at halftime.
In a typically physical and intense encounter, Lindenwood took the lead late, with a Gabba Farley try and Lungile Tshuma conversion to make it 17-16. Tshuma added a penalty to secure the game 20-16.
With three games left in the conference, it’s still anybody’s game in the Mid-South.
