A Missouri Southern State University team captain on the football field was recognized by the MIAA conference as the defensive Player of the Week. Zach Bergmann recorded 14 tackles to lead the team, and now he'll try and do much of the same heading into a Week 2 matchup with Southwest Baptist.

MSSU (1-0) heads out on the road to play at Bolivar. Kickoff is set for 6 p.m. Saturday. It'll be the first meeting against the Bearcats since 2013 as well as the program's first time in Plaster Stadium since then. ×
