JACKSON -- The Majors' Jed Mooney and Matt O'Bryant each registered 4 tackles for loss Saturday afternoon to break the individual single season Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference record for tackles for loss in a season, but their efforts were not enough as Millsaps fell to the number 4 ranked Trinity Tigers 38-6 at Alumni Field.

Mooney and O'Bryant entered Saturday's game with 23 and 22 stops for loss respectively, with Mooney topping O'Bryant to claim the league honor Saturday afternoon. O'Bryant, however, posted a game-high 14 tackles and solidified a spot as the SCAC's leading tackler in 2002.

Despite the impressive play of the senior Millsaps duo, the Majors were overmatched by a superior Trinity team. Led by quarterback Roy Hampton, who rushed for two scores and completed 15 of 26 passes for 243 yards and 3 touchdowns, the Tigers rolled up 345 yards of offense against Millsaps as they earned their fourth undefeated season and the 2002 SCAC championship.

Hampton's rushing scores came from 1 and 3 yards out, while the record setting signal caller tossed a touchdown to Jacob Respondek, Jehreme Urban, and Jason Hunt.

The Majors lone touchdown came late in the 4th quarter when backup quarterback Garner Wetzel found a wide-open Wayne Brown for a 47-yard scoring strike.

Jay Liles posted a game-high 50 yards rushing for the Majors, while Trinity's Jeremy Boyce led the Tigers running attack with 39 yards. The Tiger's Hunt led all receivers with 8 catches for 121 yards, while the Majors' Brown caught 8 passes for 97 yards.

With the win, Trinity improves to 10-0 overall and 6-0 in the SCAC and will advance to the Division III NCAA playoffs.. Millsaps ends its season 3-5 overall and 1-5 in league play.
