Sept. 3, 2026<\/span><\/p>\n

WARRENSBURG, Mo. \u2014 The Central Missouri Mules rolled past Missouri Western 49-10 on Thursday to earn their first victory of the season. The Mules recorded 436 yards of total offense in the win.<\/span><\/p>\n

Missouri Western (0-2, 0-1 MIAA) was the first on the scoreboard. Central Missouri went three-and-out and followed with a 30-yard punt, and the Griffons began their first drive on the Mules\u2019 47-yard line. A six-play drive covered 27 yards, and Missouri Western settled for a 37-yard field goal by Latrell Armstrong to take a 3-0 lead.<\/span><\/p>\n

Central Missouri (1-1, 1-0 MIAA) responded on its next drive. An 11-play, 75-yard drive was capped by a 1-yard touchdown run by <\/span>DJ Brown<\/b> to reclaim the lead. <\/span>Will Peacock<\/b> followed with the extra point to make it 7-3.<\/span><\/p>\n

No more scoring occurred until the second quarter. A 5:49 Missouri Western drive that began in the first quarter and ended in the second was capped by a Rickie Dunn 1-yard run to give the Griffons the lead back. Armstrong converted the extra point to make it 10-7.<\/span><\/p>\n

That would be the final score for the Griffons in the contest, as the Mules outscored Missouri Western 42-0 over the final 40 minutes of the game. Central Missouri scored three more times in the first half. Touchdown passes from <\/span>Jordan Pachot <\/b>to <\/span>Jack Pospisil, Jake Weber <\/b>and Marlon Lindsey Jr. <\/b>were followed by Peacock extra points, and the Mules led 28-10 at halftime.<\/span><\/p>\n

The second half brought more Central Missouri highlights. Brown added two more touchdown runs in the third quarter, with Peacock converting both extra points to make it 42-10.<\/span><\/p>\n

Mules football drops season opener at No. 6 CSU Pueblo<\/strong><\/h2>\n

By Brad Hadank<\/span><\/p>\n

Aug. 27, 2026<\/span><\/p>\n

PUEBLO, Colo. \u2014 The Central Missouri Mules lost their season opener to No. 6 Colorado State University Pueblo, 44-25, Thursday night.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Mules (0-1, 0-0 MIAA) opened the scoring with an 18-yard touchdown run by <\/span>DJ Brown<\/b> on their first drive of the game. The drive only took two minutes and 23 seconds. <\/span>Will Peacock\u2019s<\/b> extra point gave the Mules a 7-0 lead.<\/span><\/p>\n

In the first drive of the game for CSU Pueblo (1-0, 0-0 RMAC), the ThunderWolves were able to pick up a first down before back-to-back false start penalties backed them up to force a third-and-20 at their own 11-yard line. <\/span>Marcus Williams <\/b>broke through the line on the subsequent play to pick up a 10-yard sack and force the ThunderWolves to punt from their own 1-yard line. Central Missouri began its next drive from the ThunderWolves\u2019 40-yard line.<\/span><\/p>\n

CSU Pueblo was able to force a three-and-out, and the Mules\u2019 <\/span>Brody Graber <\/b>punted the ball away. A touchback gave the ThunderWolves the ball on their own 20-yard line. Two plays later, quarterback Navi Bruzon found Dedrek Taylor-Akins for a 76-yard touchdown. Jackson Smith\u2019s good extra point tied the game at 7-7, which is where the score remained through the end of the first quarter.<\/span><\/p>\n

The next score came with 9:42 left in the first half when UCM was sacked in the end zone for a 6-yard loss, resulting in a safety that gave the ThunderWolves a 9-7 lead.<\/span><\/p>\n

On the ensuing drive, the ThunderWolves capitalized. A six-play drive that took two minutes and 37 seconds was capped by a 27-yard touchdown pass from Bruzon to Taylor-Akins. Smith\u2019s extra point made it 16-7.<\/span><\/p>\n

That would not be the final score of the first half. Peacock of the Mules converted a 20-yard field goal attempt with 1:09 left in the first half to make it 16-10, which was the score at halftime.<\/span><\/p>\n

In the third quarter, the ThunderWolves found their rhythm. A 40-yard touchdown pass from Bruzon to Taylor-Akins and a 26-yard touchdown pass from Bruzon to Marcellus Honeycutt Jr. headlined the third quarter. Both of Smith\u2019s extra point attempts were good.<\/span><\/p>\n

The only score from the Mules in the third quarter came from a safety as Bruzon was flagged for intentional grounding in the end zone. At the end of the third quarter, the score was 30-12 in favor of the ThunderWolves.<\/span><\/p>\n

Central Missouri had some life in the fourth quarter. With 10:19 remaining, <\/span>Jordan Pachot<\/b> found <\/span>Marlon Lindsey<\/b> for a 25-yard touchdown to make it 30-18. The Mules went for the two-point conversion, which failed.<\/span><\/p>\n

On the next drive, a six-play drive was capped by a 48-yard touchdown run from Russell Patton with 6:33 to go. The extra point made it 37-18.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Mules\u2019 next offensive play resulted in a pick-six by Carter Daniels. The subsequent extra point made it 44-18.<\/span><\/p>\n

Central Missouri bounced back on its next drive, which resulted in a 5-yard touchdown run from Brown. Peacock converted the extra point to make it 44-25 with 2:42 to play.<\/span><\/p>\n

An ensuing onside kick from Peacock was recovered by Central Missouri, but no more scoring would result, and the ThunderWolves took it 44-25.<\/span><\/p>\n

For the Mules, Pachot was 24-for-46 passing for 318 yards and a touchdown. He threw two interceptions and was sacked five times. Brown led all rushers with 18 carries for 168 yards and two touchdowns. Lindsey led the Mules\u2019 receivers with six receptions and a touchdown.<\/span><\/p>\n

Defensively, Williams and <\/span>Abe Hoskins III <\/b>each had a sack, and <\/span>Steven Richardson<\/b> recorded an interception to lead Central Missouri.<\/span><\/p>\n

CSU Pueblo was led by quarterback Bruzon. He was 18-for-29 with 321 yards, four touchdowns and one interception. He was sacked four times. Patton led CSU Pueblo in rushing with 14 carries for 91 yards and a touchdown. Taylor-Akins led the ThunderWolves\u2019 receiving with nine receptions for 200 yards and three touchdowns.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Ichabods cut the lead to four with 8:22 remaining. The teams traded 4-0 runs before the Jennies pushed their advantage to 58-49 with 4:40 left. Washburn made it a four-point game one final time at 62-58 with 33 seconds remaining, but could not close the gap.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Mules (18-7, 9-4 MIAA) followed with a 74-72 upset of the then-unbeaten and top-ranked Washburn (22-1, 12-1 MIAA).<\/span><\/p>\n

Washburn jumped out to a 28-16 lead about 13\u00bd minutes into the game. It was the largest lead the Ichabods would hold as Central Missouri mounted a first-half comeback. The Mules closed the half with a 20-6 run, capped by a <\/span>Kyran Tilley <\/b>buzzer-beating 3-pointer to take a 36-34 halftime lead.<\/span><\/p>\n

Central Missouri never trailed after the halftime buzzer-beater. The Mules opened the second half on a 13-3 run to stretch their lead to 49-39 with 13:48 remaining. The teams traded baskets until Dillon Claussen of Washburn made a 3-pointer to tie the game at 62 with 5:25 to play.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Mules answered with a 5-0 run highlighted by a <\/span>Jake Fritz<\/b> 3-pointer before Washburn tied it again at 67 with 3:32 remaining.<\/span><\/p>\n

Lazerek Houston<\/b> then scored five straight points to give the Mules a 72-67 lead. Two Marcus Glock free throws made it a one-possession game, 72-69.<\/span><\/p>\n

Washburn fouled Houston, who went to the line for a one-and-one. Houston, a 75% free throw shooter entering the contest, missed the first free throw, and the rebound went to Washburn. The Ichabods were given one more chance from beyond the arc, but the off-balance shot was no good for the Mules to take the 74-72 upset victory.<\/span><\/p>\n

CENTERVIEW, Mo. \u2014 It was a historic night at Crest Ridge High School on Tuesday as <\/span>Wesley Taylor<\/b> broke the all-time scoring record for the Crest Ridge boys basketball program, and both the girls and boys teams earned victories over Orrick.<\/span><\/p>\n

The night opened with Crest Ridge girls basketball (12-8) hosting Orrick (6-15). The Cougars used a full-court press to take control early and never looked back.<\/span><\/p>\n

The pressure created scoring opportunities off turnovers as the Cougars took a 20-4 lead through the first quarter. Crest Ridge continued its momentum, holding Orrick scoreless in the second quarter and taking a 36-4 lead into halftime.<\/span><\/p>\n

Crest Ridge maintained its dominance in the second half, allowing only four points in the final 16 minutes and cruising to a 63-8 victory.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Crest Ridge boys basketball team (16-6) finished the night on a high note over Orrick (12-9), using a strong second half in the victory.<\/span><\/p>\n

The first quarter featured a back-and-forth battle. With time expiring and the Cougars trailing 17-14 in the first quarter, Taylor hit a buzzer-beating 3-pointer to tie the game. The basket gave Taylor the most career points in program history, surpassing current head coach Cole Schmidli.<\/span><\/p>\n

The moment brought the crowd to its feet, many of whom sported signs in support of the accomplishment, as Taylor was presented a commemorative basketball at half-court. The milestone sparked the Cougars\u2019 momentum for the remainder of the game.<\/span><\/p>\n

Jan. 23, 2026<\/span><\/p>\n

WARRENSBURG, Mo. \u2014 The Central Missouri Mules and Jennies hosted Northwest Missouri State on Friday night. The games, originally scheduled for Saturday afternoon, were moved because of a forecasted winter storm.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Jennies (14-5, 8-2 MIAA) opened the night with a win over the Bearcats (10-10, 3-7 MIAA), building a nine-point halftime lead and never looking back.

Reese Schaaf<\/b> led all scorers with 25 points. She shot 10-of-17 from the field and 2-of-4 from 3-point range. Schaaf recorded her seventh consecutive double-double, adding 10 rebounds. <\/span>Taylor Weishaar <\/b>finished with 17 points and <\/span>Makenzie Farmer <\/b>tallied 10 points for the Jennies.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Mules (15-7, 6-4 MIAA) took the floor next at the Jerry M. Hughes Athletics Center and controlled the first half, taking a 39-31 lead into the locker room.<\/span><\/p>\n

Northwest Missouri State (10-11, 3-7 MIAA) stormed back early in the second half. After Central Missouri extended its lead to 44-34, the Bearcats used a 6-0 run to make it 44-40. Northwest Missouri State pulled ahead 52-49 with 12:01 remaining on Aiden Gair\u2019s three-pointer.<\/span><\/p>\n

A few moments later, with the score reading 54-51 in favor of the Bearcats, the Mules went on a run. Central Missouri scored 15 unanswered points to take a 66-54 lead with 8:09 remaining.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Bearcats answered again as the game went back and forth. With 38 seconds remaining, Northwest Missouri State had pulled within one point.<\/span><\/p>\n

After the Bearcats closed the gap, the Mules had possession with a five-second difference between the shot clock and game clock. Northwest Missouri State opted not to foul the Mules, and the decision paid off as the ball was forced out of bounds with just over eight seconds to play. Central Missouri then used its final timeout.<\/span><\/p>\n

In the final eight seconds, the Bearcats inbounded the basketball to Royce Williams. He drove the ball down the left side of the floor and continued down the baseline before pulling up from midrange and hitting the go-ahead basket with 2.0 seconds remaining. Without any timeouts, <\/span>Lazerek Houston\u2019s <\/b>half-court heave was no good as the Mules fell 80-79.<\/span><\/p>\n

Houston led all scorers in the contest with 34 points, one shy of his career high, and added seven rebounds and six assists.<\/span> Trinell Parker<\/b> scored 13 points for the Mules.<\/span><\/p>\n

UCM run game powers past MSSU<\/h2>\n

By Aaron Bax<\/span><\/p>\n

Sept. 27, 2025<\/span><\/p>\n

WARRENSBURG, Mo. \u2014 The University of Central Missouri Mules (2-2) defeated the Missouri Southern State University Lions (2-2), 62-10, Saturday afternoon. The run game was very efficient for the Mules\u2019 offense in the victory.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Central Missouri opened the scoring when Donovyn Omolo<\/strong> took a 32-yard designed run to the end zone with 9:21 remaining in the first quarter. “[The drive] was fun. I think it’s a feeling that we’re going to keep chasing for the rest of the year,” Omolo said.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Mules followed up their first score with a Keyon Butler<\/strong> 1-yard touchdown run in the second quarter to go up 14-0. The Lions responded with an 11-yard pass to make it 14-7.<\/span><\/p>\n

The run game dominated offensively for the Mules. Both Butler and Boyd contributed two touchdowns, and the team rushed for 325 yards. \u201cThat was a big point of emphasis for us, to challenge the offensive line, and Coach Holtzclaw, I thought, did a really good job, and Coach Hawk really created a game plan in which we thought we could exploit some things and be successful, and use our strengths to our advantage,\u201d Mules Head Coach Josh Lamberson<\/strong> said.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Mules\u2019 defense also had an efficient performance, forcing three interceptions and a fumble. \u201cIt’s not the same defense that we rolled out there against Delta State. \u2026 I think they have improved almost every drive that they’ve been in the football game, and I expect that to continue,\u201d Lamberson said.<\/span><\/p>\n

UP NEXT:<\/strong> The Mules will travel to Central Oklahoma on Oct. 4. Kickoff is scheduled for 7 p.m. \u201cI am excited to go down into that environment. It was an awesome environment last year for college football,\u201d Lamberson said.<\/span><\/p>\n

Crest Ridge started the scoring on the first play of the second quarter when quarterback Wesley Taylor<\/strong> rushed for a touchdown run to make the score 6-0.\u00a0 Midway quickly responded with a Blake Russ touchdown run, and kicker Gavin Oberlander\u2019s extra point made it 7-6. The Vikings added six more on a 28-yard touchdown run by Adams to take a 13-6 lead into halftime.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Cougars regained hope when Kegan Walsh<\/strong> converted a 38-yard touchdown pass from Taylor, followed by a successful two-point conversion to make it 26-14. However, a 56-yard touchdown run by Adams put an end to those hopes, and his fifth touchdown led to the final score of 40-14.<\/span><\/p>\n

UCM scored early with a headed corner kick goal by Ryann Clark<\/strong> in the fifth minute. The Jennies followed it up with a second headed goal by Izzy Joyce<\/strong>. UCM continued with a 14th minute goal from Coryn Jesperson<\/strong>. The Jennies finished off their first half scoring with a Mikayla Ernst<\/strong> penalty kick. Ernst would add the fifth Jennies goal in the 58th minute. Head coach Lewis Theobald<\/strong> said, \u201cI think the idea tonight was [that] it’s our first home game, and we take pride in playing at home. So we wanted to be on the front foot, and we wanted to pressure them high up as close to their goal as we could.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

For the Tigers the best opportunity came in the 70th minute when the referee awarded a penalty to OBU. However, Kristen Wright<\/strong> came up big for the hosts to save the penalty.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Overall the Jennies led across the board, outshooting OBU 27-4 while putting 14 shots on target to OBU\u2019s two.. The Jennies also played a cleaner game with only four fouls to the Tigers\u2019 nine.<\/span><\/p>\n

Clark, Joyce and Jesperson all scored their first goals of the season in the home opener while Ernst led the Jennies offensively with two goals and an assist on the night. Ernst, who Theobald described as a \u201ctrue goalscoring threat,\u201d improved to four goals and two assists on the season. Ernst was proud of the team effort tonight. \u201cHonestly, even just scoring goals, it’s not independent, just on me. I can’t do it without having my teammates put me in good situations,\u201d Ernst said.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

UP NEXT:<\/strong> The Jennies host Harding on Sept. 21. The Jennies begin MIAA play on Sept. 26 at Northeastern State.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

CENTERVIEW, Mo. \u2014 The Crest Ridge Cougars (2-2) defeated the Cole Camp Bluebirds (2-2), 34-24, in their final game in Centerview this season. The Cougars\u2019 one remaining home game, scheduled for Oct. 17, will be played at Warrensburg High School due to construction at the Crest Ridge football field.<\/span><\/p>\n

Crest Ridge held a commanding lead throughout the contest. Defensive highlights for the Cougars included two interceptions \u2014 one by Wesley Taylor<\/strong> and another by Jace Trobough<\/strong>. Offensively, Taylor found Trobough for a 40-plus-yard connection in the first half. He also connected with Kegan Walsh<\/strong> for a 20-plus-yard touchdown in the contest. Carsen Hursh<\/strong> excelled at running back for the Cougars, finishing with multiple carries and contributing several points in the win.<\/span><\/p>\n

Late-game drama began when Crest Ridge led by 18 points in the fourth quarter and took over possession at its own 1-yard line. A handoff to Hursh was stopped in the backfield, resulting in a safety. With the Bluebirds down by two scores, the ensuing kick from Crest Ridge gave Cole Camp excellent field position in Cougar territory. From there, the Bluebirds scored quickly to make it a 10-point game. However, a failed two-point conversion resulted in the final score of 34-24 in favor of Crest Ridge.<\/span><\/p>\n

UP NEXT:<\/strong> Crest Ridge travels to Midway on Sept. 26 for a Class 1 District 5 showdown. The game will air live on 100.3 KMUL, with the pregame show set for 6:50 p.m. and kickoff at 7 p.m.<\/span><\/p>\n

WARRENSBURG, Mo. \u2014<\/span> Jack Pospisil<\/strong> and Hogan Wasson<\/strong> combined for 380 receiving yards, but it was not enough for the University of Central Missouri Mules on Thursday night. The Colorado State University Pueblo ThunderWolves defeated the Mules 29-24 at Audrey J. Walton Stadium at Vernon Kennedy Field in Warrensburg.<\/p>\n

CSU Pueblo (2-1) was the first team to find the end zone. Taylor-Akins made a Roman Fuller pass with one<\/p>\n

hand and took it 65 yards to the house with 8:31 remaining in the first quarter.<\/p>\n

The Mules (0-2) found the end zone with a Keyon Butler<\/strong> 4-yard touchdown run in the end of the first quarter after a muffed punt set them up with excellent field position.<\/p>\n

Both teams also contributed field goals in the first quarter to make the score 10-all heading into the second quarter. Mules kicker Will Peacock<\/strong> converted from 41 yard out, and ThunderWolves kicker Jackson Smith hit from 30.<\/p>\n

Defense reigned supreme in the second quarter. The Mules scored the only points of the quarter with 23 seconds left as quarterback Donovyn Omolo<\/strong> ran in from the 2-yard line to give the Mules a 17-10 halftime lead.<\/p>\n

In the third quarter, things went south for UCM. The ThunderWolves turned to the run game. A nine play, 89-yard drive culminated in a touchdown to tie the game, and another nine play, 64-yard drive that ended in a field goal gave CSU-Pueblo a 20-10 lead. The ThunderWolves tacked on another three as Smith converted a 42-yard attempt.<\/p>\n

The Mules made a change at quarterback, bringing in Jordan Pachot<\/strong> in the fourth quarter. That decision paid immediately dividends. The Mules went on an 11-play, 75-yard drive that took 3:05 and ended in a 3-yard touchdown pass to Pospisil to make the score 24-23.<\/p>\n

However, it would not last as a Kiahn Martinez 1-yard touchdown run put the ThunderWolves back up 29-24 after a failed two-point conversion attempt.<\/p>\n

Pachot and the Mules got one last chance with 1:45 on the clock and no timeouts starting at their own 18-yard line. A 66-yard strike to Pospisil took the Mules to the 3-yard line and the ThunderWolves were forced to take a timeout with 41 seconds remaining. On first and goal, a Mules pass attempt fell incomplete. On second and goal, the Mules were called an illegal chop block. The 15-yard penalty was followed-up by a 9-yard sack. An incompletion on third and goal from the 27-yard line saw CSU-Pueblo take their final timeout with eight seconds to play. An incomplete pass on fourth and goal sealed the game for the visiting ThunderWolves.<\/p>\n

Dedrik Taylor-Akins was a key player offensively for the ThunderWolves. The wide receiver had seven receptions for 170 yards and one touchdown in the contest. Peyton Shaw was pivotal defensively for the ThunderWolves, intercepting two passes for the Pack.<\/p>\n

UP NEXT:<\/strong> The Mules face MIAA-rival Missouri Western on the road. Kickoff is set for Saturday, Sept. 20 at 6 p.m.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
