It may have taken overtime to finish the job, but Keller ultimately got the result they hoped for on Friday. They snuck past the Northwest Texans with a 34-28 victory. For the Indians, this counts as revenge for the 23-7 win the Texans walked away with the last time they faced one another back in September of 2024.
Keller was led to victory by Quintin Shropshire and Brock Burkett. Shropshire rushed for 100 yards and two scores on only 14 carries, while Burkett gained 246 total yards.
They were just one part of a punishing run game: Keller was unstoppable on the ground and finished the game with 215 rushing yards. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now rushed for at least 176 rushing yards in ten consecutive matches dating back to last season.
On the other side of the ball, a lot of the credit has to go to Keller's defense and their four sacks. That dominant display was truly a team effort as four different players picked up one apiece. Freddy Atamah was another major factor on D, picking up a sack, forcing one fumble, and making ten total tackles (2.0 for loss).
