TROY "MEAN" TO NORTH TEXAS

-Preston Hayden

October 28, 2006

With the Sun Belt title in their sights, the Men of Troy took care of business today, cruising past North Texas 42-10.

The Trojans were strong from the start with Leodis McKelvin returning the opening kickoff 96 yards for a TD. He would later add a 57 yard punt return for a touchdown. All day long, in fact, the special teams were able to set up great drives for the offense, with the Trojan offense spending most of the day on North Texas' side of the 50.

Quarterback Omar Haugabook did not have a stellar passing day, but was able to put his receivers in great position for a lot of yards after catch.

The defense remained stingy today, with the bye week healing up all wounds and fatigue that set in from a tough beginning of the year.

"We're taking it one game at a time," said Larry Blakeney. "Our goal is to take the conference and get down to New Orleans. We're one step closer now."

The Trojans kickoff homecoming next week against the Louisiana-Lafayette Rajun Cajuns.
