The Mustangs walked away with a 31-21 victory over the Steamers. The Mustangs didn't have much to brag about two games back, but this win makes it their second in a row.

Morrison picked up their first home victory, bumping their record up to 2-6. As for Marquette, their record is now 5-3.

Marquette strolled past Morrison in their previous meeting back in October of 2022 by a score of 20-6. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Crusaders since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
