Nolan Saraceni and the Orediggers continued their winning ways, defeating the College of Idaho 29-21 in Tech’s homecoming appearance at Bob Green Field.

Junior running back Saraceni rushed 31 times for 179 yards during the contest, driving the Digger offense.

Senior linebacker Tyler Gavlak lead the Digger defense with nine tackles, while Matthew Neylan and David Meis each contributed seven.

With standout quarterback Quinn McQuery sidelined with an injury, junior Dawson Reardon facilitated the offense in the first half until an injury put him on the bench next to McQueary. Andrew Loudenback filled the QB spot for the remainder of the game.

The one-two punch of Loudenback and senior wide receiver Clay Cavender sealed the deal for the Diggers when Cavender received a Loudenback pass late in the 4th quarter, putting the Diggers up 29-21 against the Yotes.

The Orediggers are on bye next week, but will return to action against Rocky Mountain College in Billings October 10th.

The Orediggers pulled an upset, defeating No. 4 Carroll College 19-10 at Bob Green field in Tech’s home opener.

Montana State transplant quarterback Quinn McQueary facilitated the offense, completing 14 of 20 passes and rushing 75 yards.

The Diggers pounded the Saints’ defensive line, rushing for 226 yards while holding Carroll to just 12.

Standout running backs Nolan Saraceni and Zack Winfield helped the backfield along, combining for 133 yards for the Diggers.

Saraceni, who leads the Frontier conference both in rushing, with 580 yards, and in rushing touchdowns, with 8 yards, was pleased with the team’s performance.

“It’s definitely a big win for us. You know, we came out here, just trying to do the little things right and hopefully get the points on the board, so this is definitely a big win for us,” Saraceni said in a post-game interview.

The Diggers return to action September 19 against Eastern Oregon University in LaGrande, OR.
