Texas College Steers show improvement in loss to Lane Dragons

TYLER, Texas -- Although the Charles Moss era at Texas College did not start off with a win, there were some good signs for the Steers football program.

Lane College held off a young TC squad, 40-20, on a very hot and sunny afternoon on Saturday at Christus Trinity Mother Frances Rose Stadium.

The contest was much closer than last year’s 44-6 loss to the Dragons in Jackson, Tennessee.

“I saw some positives and several things we can correct,” Moss said. “We had some breakdowns, but there were some encouraging signs.”

Some of those signs included quarterback Sean Stell, a senior from Fresno, California, hitting on 16 of 27 pass attempts for 112 yards with two TD passes (21 yards to Myles Hill and 4 yards to Cory Sherman). Stell also scored on a 1-yard dash.

The rushing attack totaled 136 yards, led by Jude St. Julian (10-63) and Carlos Mosby (19-59). St. Julian is a senior from St. Martinsville, Louisiana, while Mosby is a sophomore from Lake Providence, Georgia.

Hill, a junior from Atlanta, Georgia, added three catches for 34 yards. Sherman is a senior from Marlin. Marcus Holiday II led the Dragons with 148 yards and a TD on 19 carries.
