THIS WEEK IN CARROLL FOOTBALL
Carroll gets its biggest opponent on the biggest stage so far in the 2018 campaign when it faces off against No. 3 Southern Oregon during homecoming weekend. Carroll enters with a two game winning streak. Southern Oregon is undefeated on the season.
LAST GAME: SAINTS HANDLE NORTHERN IN HAVRE, 32-14
The Carroll College Saints rushed for nearly 300 yards as they defeated Montana State-Northern 32-14 on Saturday in Havre. The Saints (3-1, 2-1 Frontier) built a two score lead early thanks to rushing touchdowns from 
Major Ali and 
Eric Dawson. Northern (1-3, 0-3) cut into that lead with four minutes left in the first half, as Tommy Wilson rushed his way into the end zone for a score, but it would be the closest the Saints would allow the Lights the rest of the way. 
Josh Kraft added a 22-yard field goal before halftime, and then the Saints struck
first in the third. Redshirt sophomore quarterback 
Kolby Killoy, who went 11 of 19 for 166 yards,
hooked up with 
Shane Sipes for a 24-yard scoring strike. 
Ryan Arntson extended the lead with a seven-yard running TD.
Wilson added another running touchdown for MSU-N, but it would be all the Lights had to offer on Saturday. Kraft closed the game out with a 26-yard chip shot. Four different runners contributed to the run game, led by junior running back 
Major Ali, who posted his second consecutive 100-yard game with 133 yards on 23 carries with a touchdown. Sophomore tailback 
Ryan Arntson nearly eclipsed the century mark, running 15 times for 91 yards and a score.
Tight end 
Eric Dawson took six carries for 49 yards and a score. The Carroll defense held the Lights to 261 yards of total offense, while the Saints piled up 453.
ABOUT SOUTHERN OREGON
The Raiders have been at or near the top of the league for the past three seasons,
including an undefeated run through the Frontier all the way into the NAIA
Semifinals last season. The Raiders lean heavily on Rey Vega, a returning all-conference running back from a season ago. The passing attack behind new quarterback Wyatt Hutchinson gives SOU an offense that averages 37 points per game, the No. 24 mark in the NAIA.
The Raiders defense is no slouch either. The Raiders average a 4.8 sacks per game,
the No. 3 mark in the NAIA. SOU has been one of the best teams at racking up sacks in the NAIA in recent years. Aside from a 35-28 victory over College of Idaho, Southern Oregon has held opponents to 12.5 points per game. The Raiders have not lost a conference road game since Nov. 29, 2016.
