Oct. 9, 1999
The Washburn Ichabods used a dominating second half performance to
defeat Missouri-Rolla 53-18 on homecoming at Moore Bowl Saturday afternoon.
The 53 point total was Washburn’s highest total ever in MIAA
play and the victory was their largest margin since a 45-0 victory
against the Miners in 1996.
The Washburn defense held the Miners to 40 yards in the second half,
while the offense took control of the ballgame. The Ichabods gained
299 total yards in the second half, including 186 yards rushing after
gaining only 46 yards on the ground in the first half.
Senior quarterback Barry Galbraith was 13-19 for 235 yards and four
touchdowns. Galbraith also led the team in rushing with 59 yards on
14 carries and ran for two touchdowns.
Corey Phipps led the Ichabod defense with 15 tackles (8 solo, 7 assist), including two for losses. J.J. Richardson became the first Ichabod defender to score this season with a 27-yard interception return in the fourth quarter.
