BELTON- Since its first NCAA playoff appearance in 2004, the UMHB football team has faced a range of opponents. Teams such as Linfield College, from the pacific northwest, Redlands, located on the California coast, and now-defunct Wesley College from the northeast. Even within the 2021 run to the Stagg Bowl, UMHB faced opponents from four different states and five different conferences. But throughout their postseason duels in November and December in recent years, the Crusaders have battled one opponent on a seemingly regular basis: Wisconsin-Whitewater. 

WHITEWATER, Wis.- Wisconsin-Whitewater head coach Kevin Bullis knows the matchup between his Warhawks and the visiting University of Mary Hardin-Baylor Crusaders well. Prior to taking the head job in 2015, he was an assistant for six seasons at UW-Whitewater. In the span of his time in Whitewater, the Warhawks and Cru have battled four times on the gridiron. But each of those contests, including Whitewater’s 26-7 quarterfinal victory in 2019, have been contested in Belton. This year, however, it will be UMHB making the trip north for the semifinal matchup.
