**Adrian, MI -** The Adrian College Bulldogs are riding a two-game winning streak and look to continue their strong start to the season as they travel to Franklin College this weekend. The Bulldogs, under new head coach Joe Palka, have shown impressive offensive firepower, with quarterback Jake Kelbert and running back Shondel Hardnett leading the charge.
Kelbert, a transfer from Northwood, has thrown for 366 yards and two touchdowns, while Hardnett, a transfer from Concordia Ann Arbor, has rushed for 219 yards and two touchdowns. The Bulldogs’ defense has also been stout, with freshman Trey Brueggemann leading the team in tackles.
While Adrian College faces a tough challenge against a Franklin team looking to bounce back from two losses, the Bulldogs are confident in their ability to extend their winning streak.
Meanwhile, the Siena Heights Saints are hoping to finally get into the win column after dropping their first four games of the season. The Saints have struggled offensively, but Elijah Taylor has shown flashes of potential at quarterback. The team will need to find a way to limit turnovers and improve their defense if they want to compete with St. Francis.
St. Francis, coming off a win against Defiance College, boasts a potent offense led by quarterback Joshua Kulka and running back David Smith. The Saints will need to find a way to slow down the Cougars’ offense if they want to avoid a fourth consecutive loss.
Both games are scheduled to kick off at 1 p.m. this Saturday.
