KINGSVILLE, Texas- Western Oregon rallied with two late fourth quarter touchdowns to beat Texas A&M Kingsville 48-37 on a chilly Saturday night at Javelina Stadium. The Javelinas closed out the regular season with a 7-4 record.
 
TAMUK  led 37-34 after Gilbert Garza kicked a 37 yard field at the start of the fourth quarter.
 
The Wolves took the lead when Western Oregon linebacker Mason Brown picked up a TAMUK fumble and rambled 60 yards for a touchdown with 7:11  left in the game which made it 41-37. The Wolves put the game away when  QB Gannon Winker sprinted 38 yards for another Western Oregon touchdown with 2:04 left.
 
"This is obviously not the way we wanted to finish the regular season," said TAMUK head football coach Mike Salinas. "Especially on senior night, our guys played hard but in the end we did not make enough plays in critical situations. This loss will not define us, I am very proud of my players because I felt like we made great strides this year."
 
There is a chance the Javelinas could get selected to play in a post season bowl game, that decision will be announced Tuesday. "We would love to get another opportunity to get our players back on the field and end the season with a victory," said Salinas. Read Full Article
