Sept. 17 vs St. FX

The Gaiters men’s football team was energized and ready to go for their home opener game on Coulter Field in the third week of September. They hosted the X-Men who have yet to lose a game this season. The Gaiters were determined to bring St. FX’s winning streak to an end.

With a rocky first half of the game, Bishop’s trailing 19-1, they came out in the second half determined to put some points on the scoreboard.

The stands were packed to the brim as freshman Cedric Maurice helped the team make a small comeback in the fourth quarter. The quarterback, Mason McGriskin, threw a beautiful pass to receiver Oliver Burnett to put the score at 21-14. 

Unfortunately, their momentum started a little too late in the game, and the Gaiters fell short to St. FX 21-16.

The team will be hitting the road again on Sept. 24 to go head-to-head against the St. Mary’s Huskies at 3 p.m. local time.
