LA GRANDE —
Eastern Oregon University
football got its 2021 spring
season off to a roaring start
at home Saturday after-
noon, March 20, shutting
out the Carroll College
Saints.
The Mountaineers
scored three touchdowns
in the second quarter and
one in the third to secure
the four-touchdown win at
home.
EOU Athletics reported
the Mountaineers put up
354 yards on offense and
limited Carroll College
(1-1, 1-1 Frontier) to 168
yards.
About a hundred fans
watched the game from
outside the fence at Com-
munity Stadium.

touchdown, helping
EOU go up 21-0.
In the third quarter,
EOU defensive lineman
Chase Van Wyck blocked
a Saints punt, and run-
ning back Jordan Eggers
scooped up the ball for an
easy score.
The Saints came close
to scoring late in the fourth
after recovering a Moun-
taineer fumble on the
32-yard line. But Eastern
picked off Carroll College
quarterback Brennan Pope
and ran out the last 6:10 on
the clock.
Quinn was 16-28 on the
day for 216 yards and one
touchdown. He also ran the
ball six times for a gain of
15 yards.
Thomas pulled in five
catches for 83 yards to lead
the receiving corps.
Van Wyck led the
defense with eight total
tackles and 1.5 sacks.
The Mountaineers now
hit the road for the second
week of the spring season,
heading to Billings, Mon-
tana, to take on Rocky
Mountain College. Kickoff
against the Battlin’ Bears
is set for noon.
