🔼 Best In State. Bulldog football offensive tackle Albert Reese IV has been named the 2024 Kent Hull Trophy winner, an award given to the state of Mississippi's top offensive lineman. Reese has been a mainstay on State's offensive line this season, starting all 10 games at right tackle. He has helped create running lanes for State's backs, including Davon Booth who leads the team in rushing (615 yards) and all-purpose yards (1,002).

🔼 A Memorable First Step. For the third consecutive year, State secured a win in the opening round of the NCAA Tournament. Breaking records and making history indeed made for an incredible night out at the pitch. The Bulldogs are now laser-focused on the next task on deck and are taking it one day at a time as the next challenger – Washington – approaches Friday.

🗣️ "I think especially going off of last game, I think our whole team [knows] this is a new chapter. We closed [the last] one, now it's time for the NCAA Tournament and we need to kick it up a notch.” - Riley Combs, Bulldog defender
