Warhawks "Pound the Rock" on the Road to Salem

Tied at 14 vs. Linfield on Saturday, UW-Whitewater went into pound the rock mode faced with a fourth quarter drive 75 yards from the south end zone at foggy Perkins Stadium.

Dennis Moore and Jordan Ratliffe carried the sledge hammer.

Ratliffe rushed for 22 yards and caught an 11 yard pass for a critical 1st down on what turned out to be the game-winning drive.

But is was Dennis Moore who sealed the deal with a 33 yard dash to the south end zone with five minutes left in the 4th quarter.

Moore and Ratliffe  both went over 100 yards in the win. Moore's 112 yards on 19 carries giving the junior from Elgin, IL 1,033 yards on the season. It marks the 11th straight year the Warhawks have featured a 1000 yard rusher.
