Cow Bowl: Saints scout teams face off as NAIA playoffs loom

jeff, our sportswriter, and i have been wanting to do a story about carroll's scout teams pretty much since the season began and we watched the scout teams scrimmage with the starters and i asked a gajillion stupid questions about what a scout team actually is.

the "cow bowl" is a tradition coach van diest brought with him from wyoming, refering to the two or three practices a season where just the scout team players dress out and go at it (full pads, full tackles) while the starters stand on the sidelines (basically tailgating) yelling their heads off.
a good time was had by all :)

Carroll Senior Day

last game of the regular season, last home game of the regular season -- carroll bids adieu to its seniors on the football team, and sends one more frontier conference opponent packing before heading into the naia playoffs ...

Grudge Match

saving the best/worst? for (almost) last: the saints traveled to butte this saturday to play their rivals, the montana tech orediggers...
it was probably the closest game of the season, with carroll squeaking out 10-6 with their streak intact.
