GRR: Life University
After having to work their way through close games, Life University was finally able to shake off an opponent, winning their DIA semifinal over Lindenwood 43-14.
“I’m very happy with the performance,” said Head Coach Tui Osborne. “It was a physical game. It was good to see them play hard.”
Life University laid down an impressive marker in winning their DIA semifinal over Lindenwood University 43-14.
In a very physical and sometimes chippy game, Life dominated field position and scoring in the first half. The Lions roared back in the second half to come within two tries, but Life put the dagger in late to win it.
Life University’s Running Eagles can’t be a work in progress any more, as the Running Eagles host Lindenwood Saturday in Marietta.
The young, hard-working Life team did enough to push aside Penn State last week, but Head Coach Tui Osborne wasn’t overly impressed.
Life University has been off for three weeks and goes into this weekend’s DIA quarterfinal against Penn State well-rested.
And don’t think they’ll b rusty. Life has shown repeatedly that they can switch it on when they need to.
Life and Central Florida were expected to compete for the South Independent DI title yesterday, and while the pair did make it to the title match, the weekend was anything but predictable.
