Missouri Southern State University football finally snapped a losing streak that engulfed parts of 3-seasons last Saturday with a 24-19 victory over Northeastern State. The Lion’s defense bent but didn’t break during the victory as the Riverhawks lead in nearly every offensive category. The victory for the Lions was the teams first in over 700 days. Could the Lions make it two in a row this weekend when they host the Bronchos of the University of Central Oklahoma at Fred G. Hughes? Kick off is Saturday at 2 PM.
