Vikes reshuffle boosts defense as OU faces Mo Valley
Ottawa University reshapes its line with sophomore Dave Holtwick moving to defensive tackle and Jack Taylor taking over at left tackle to bolster a front five averaging 228 pounds. The Vikings, led by Ron Brooks Jim Morris and Paul Actyl on the inside, pursue a repeat performance after a 63-0 win and sit atop HAC contenders alongside McValley. The Braves fear the matchup as quarterback Diminuco recovers from a bruised foot and Ottawa plans multiple backs in a pivotal clash that could reshape the HAC race.
