The Lindenwood football team (1-2) will close out its non-conference schedule on Saturday with a 12:00 p.m. (11:00 a.m. CST) kickoff in Findlay, Ohio to take on the University of Findlay (2-1).

The Lions are coming off a 56-34 victory over Kentucky Wesleyan on Saturday night.  Cade Brister led the offensive attached with a total of five rushing touchdowns.  Nash Sutherlin (2) and Robert Giaimo (1) each crossed the goal line to tie a school record of eight rushing touchdowns in one game as a team.
