Four Division III football conferences are joining the ever-growing number of leagues sponsoring postgame bowls, as the Ohio Athletic Conference, Presidents' Athletic Conference, North Coast Athletic Conference and Heartland Collegiate Athletic Conference will square off this November in Canton.
On an exciting March Saturday in Division III football, UMHB held on to win the ASC title, Randolph-Macon defeated its archrival for the seventh time in a row, while CUW led for the best 50 seconds of the game and Hanover won on a last-minute field goal.
"When I was at Hanover and we were winning conference championships, we had a swagger and a pride in Hanover football that needed to be rebuilt. We’ve tried to recreate that identity." That's how former player and current head coach Matt Theobald describes the state of the Panthers program.
FRANKLIN, Ind. – The Hanover College football team is once again on top of the Heartland Collegiate Athletic Conference, as the Panthers defeated Franklin, on the road, in the 88th annual Victory Bell Classic Saturday afternoon, 23-20.
HANOVER, Ind. – The Hanover College football team scored 29 unanswered points over the final three quarters Saturday to rally for a 29-14 triumph over Rose-Hulman on Senior and Hall of Fame Day at Alumni Stadium.
HANOVER, Ind. – A slow start and five turnovers plagued the Hanover football team at home Saturday afternoon, as Mount St. Joseph took the Heartland Collegiate Athletic Conference top-three showdown by a final of 19-15.
ANDERSON, Ind. – The Hanover football team continued its stellar start to Heartland Collegiate Athletic Conference play, defeating Anderson on the road Saturday afternoon, 55-8.
Behind a 27-point second quarter and close to 600 total yards of offense, the Hanover football team cruised to its first victory of the season Saturday, defeating Anderson at home, 64-21.
MARYVILLE, Tenn. – Leading 14-7 at halftime, the Hanover football team was out-scored 17-6 in the second half to fall 24-20 to Maryville in the first road contest of the season.
We can't call it *the* Immaculate Reception, but this deflection and catch is pretty immaculate in its own right. This modern take on a classic catch and touchdown is the D3football.com Play of the Week.
Another brick was laid in the battle for the Victory Bell. For the second time in three years, the Heartland Collegiate Athletic Conference title was on the line when Franklin met Hanover.
Senior wide receiver Daniel Passafiume (Louisville, Ky.) scored on a 25-yard run in overtime as Hanover rallied from a 20-point second-half deficit to defeat the Rose-Hulman, 33-27.
For those who thought the Panthers couldn't recover from their preseason loss of wide receiver Daniel Passafiume, Hanover has served notice that it's not done yet.
Twenty-five catches wasn't enough of a feat to salvage Hanover's 2009 season. Daniel Passafiume is hoping this year's accomplishments include a few more victories.
Hanover president Sue DeWine has announced that Joe Austin, offensive coordinator at Dubuque, has been selected as the school's 25th head football coach. Austin succeeds longtime coach Wayne Perry, who retired after the 2007 season.
Long-time Hanover coach Wayne Perry tried really hard to sound convincing about his new role next school year as the athletic department’s chief fundraiser after prowling the sidelines as the Panthers head coach for 26 seasons.
Did anyone see outside of Hanover see Hanover’s 41-35 overtime victory over Mount St. Joseph coming? Well, Wayne Perry, coach of the Panthers, said he did. He said his players did, too.
This is Rivalry Week, where the games are big and the legends are bigger. This week, teams from around the nation meet their fiercest competitors. With a win in this game, even a 1-9 team can go out a champion.
