EIU Football Continues Winning Ways

Monday, 17 October 2016

Eastern Illinois continues to succeed in the Ohio Valley Conference.

The Panthers hit the road to take on Tennessee Tech Saturday, and it came down to the wire.

The Golden Eagles had a chance late in the fourth quarter, but E-I-U linebacker Nick Horne made the stop on fourth down to give the Panthers a 30-24 win.

Redshirt Junior Mitch Kimble threw for 323 yards and two touchdowns, and senior Devin Church posted his fourth game over 100 yards this season.

Church set some career records of his own, as he also matched his career-high with 139 rushing yards.

The Panthers are back at home to play Murray State on Saturday for the homecoming game at 1 p.m.
