Photo Gallery: UMHB Football vs. Monterrey Tech

Posted on Author Luke Zayas

With its season opener just a week away, the varsity roster for the UMHB football team battled Monterrey Tech under the lights of Crusader Stadium on Saturday night in a scrimmage. The team showed room for improvement, but looked sharp after its first three weeks of fall camp. KJ Miller had a number of long punt returns, the receiving corps was on point, and the defensive line found its rhythm early on, putting pressure on the opposing quarterback, even against a stout offensive line for Monterrey Tech.

True To The Cru’s Russell Marwitz captured the action from the sidelines, as UMHB emerged victorious in the contest. Below is a collection of his field-level photos. To see more from the scrimmage, be sure to visit his website at RussellMarwitz.com.
