Ozark had to settle for second on Friday, but Eli Gilstrap sure wasn't going down easily. Gilstrap was dynamite, picking up a sack and making five total tackles. He also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, picking up a sack and making five total tackles.
Ozark dropped their record down to 4-6 with the defeat, which was their fifth straight on the road. Gilstrap will have a chance to log another big game when he takes on Arkadelphia on Friday.
