Munter Posts Huge Game in 58-40 Defeat
Drexel/Miami was sadly handed a loss on Friday, but Tj Munter did his best to prevent it. Nobody could stop Munter as he forced a fumble and made 16 total tackles (1.0 for loss). He also put in work on the defensive side of the ball, forcing a fumble and making 16 total tackles (1.0 for loss).
Greenfield's probably not too fond of Munter given he always seems to get the better of them. When Munter last faced Greenfield back in October of 2023, he picked up a sack, forced a fumble, and made 14 total tackles (5.0 for loss).

Devin Steeley Turns in Season-Best Effort

Greenfield is undefeated when Steeley posts two or more rushing touchdowns, but 1-2 otherwise.
