LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Bellarmine sprint football will round out its first-ever regular season on Saturday when the Knights face Calumet College of St. Joseph in Whiting, Ind.

Bellarmine (4-1) and CCSJ (4-1) are currently in a three-way tie for first place in the MSFL with Saint Mary-of-the-Woods College (4-1).  The winner of Saturday's game will secure a spot in the MSFL Championship Game on Nov. 5. 

The top-seeded team following Saturday's results will host the second-place team for the title.  In consolation games that also will take place on Nov. 5, the no. 3 seed will host the no. 4 seed, while the no. 5 seed hosts the no. 6 seed.  Bellarmine is guaranteed to finish in the top three of the MSFL.

The Knights are coming off their best offensive performance of the season…by far.  After combining for 53 total points through the first four weeks, Bellarmine scored 49 in its win over Midway last Saturday.   Brenden Reid led the Knights charge with 232 yards rushing and three total touchdowns, which earned him MSFL Offensive Player of the Week.  Quarterback Dylan Gough threw for a season-best 209 yards and three touchdowns, while Devan Hendricks ran for 113 yards and two touchdowns. 

As a team, BU ranks second in the MSFL in rushing yards per game at 168 per contest.  The Knights also rank second in the league with 10 interceptions on the defensive side.
