Mixon sets single-season rushing record, Tigers fall to Berry

SEWANEE, Tenn. – Barton Mixon rushed for 112 yards to put his season total at 1,170 yards, a new Sewanee football single-season record, while the Sewanee Tigers ended the season at Berry College with a 67-14 loss.

Mixon needed 109 yards for the record. Carl Cravens, a member of the Sewanee Hall of Fame, ran for 1,166 yards in 1991.

Sewanee senior Michael Showalter concluded his career with a team-leading seven tackles and two tackles for loss, including one sack. He also forced a fumble and blocked an extra point. Senior Dallas Grooms blocked a point-after attempt as well.

Brennan Reed tallied 75 yards on three catches, including a touchdown.

Berry took a 26-0 lead in the first quarter off three touchdown passes from Andrew Hunter and a 37-yard run by Devin Gale. Mixon punched it in from a yard out for a touchdown with 13:06 left in the second to cut the deficit to 26-7.

Hunter then ran it in from three yards out on Berry's ensuing drive. Jake Turner later scored on a 33-yard run with 2:19 to go in the second quarter, putting the Vikings up 40-7.

Reed caught a 54-yarder from Maddox Franklin with 23 seconds to go, but the Vikings scored on a 25-yard pass from Hunter in the waning moments of the half.

Turner added a six-yard touchdown run late in the third, and the Vikings posted two more touchdowns in the fourth, with Ben Plemons running for a three-yarder, and Tyler Blalock scoring from 65 yards out.
