Monmouth College Football has officially wrapped up its regular season with the most lopsided win in Turkey Bowl history, rolling past the Knox Prairie Fire 69-0. It was a special afternoon for the Scots, who honored their seniors and celebrated sophomore kicker Mylee Hansen, who received the Elite 20 Award, says Head Coach Chad Braun.
The Elite 20 Award goes to the student-athlete with the highest cumulative GPA among all competitors in that sport’s Midwest Conference championship field.
Following the dominant win, Monmouth has cracked the national rankings at number 25 in the d3football.com poll, their first appearance since 2016. The Scots have also secured their first playoff berth since 2019, earning a road matchup at number 7 St. John’s (9-1) next Saturday, November 29, at 12 p.m. The game will air on ESPN+, and it will also be broadcast live on WRAM AM 1330, FM 95.7, and online at radiomonmouth.com.
