Missouri Southern State University Athletics

Nick Williams had three field goals in the Lions' 20-16 loss to Pittsburg State this week. He would have had another before a running into the kicker penalty gave the Lions a first down that led to a Southern touchdown ... Had that fourth field goal counted, he would have tied the MSSU single-game record ... He had distances of 28, 32 and 41, connecting on every one of his chances, including an extra point ... Williams also had four punts for 173 yards, including a long of 51 for an average of 43.2.
