Colorado Mines football cruises past South Dakota Mines behind Evan Foster’s four-touchdown day
A week after its RMAC win streak came to an end, the Colorado School of Mines football program is ready to start a new one.
Riding the arm of redshirt senior quarterback Evan Foster, the 12th-ranked Orediggers got back on track with a 45-20 thrashing of South Dakota Mines on Saturday afternoon at Marv Kay Stadium in Golden.
Foster put up 319 yards and four touchdowns on 19-of-26 passing, connecting with senior Max McLeod and junior Flynn Schiele on two scoring passes apiece as Mines (5-1 overall, 3-1 RMAC) jumped ahead 42-6 with 3:20 left in the third quarter and cruised from there.
McLeod finished the game with eight receptions for 172 yards, while Schiele hauled in six passes for 126.
Sophomore defensive back Will Ramsey got things started with an interception return for a touchdown on South Dakota Mines’ first offensive possession of the game. It was the Orediggers’ first defensive touchdown of the season. Things didn’t get much better after that for the Hardrockers (3-4, 2-3 RMAC), who were held to 287 total yards.
McLeod and Schiele had touchdown grabs of 50 and 24 yards and Landon Walker ran in a score from 1 yard out to give the Orediggers a 28-3 lead by halftime. The lead ballooned to 36 points after McLeod reeled in his second TD grab, putting him at 51 for his career to become the second player in Mines history and 11th in NCAA Division II to reach 50 TDs.
Mines’ blowout win followed a 14-13 loss at Colorado Mesa last Saturday, the program’s first RMAC loss in 24 games. Next up is a visit to Adams State in Alamosa next Saturday at 1 p.m.

The South Dakota State Jackrabbits (4-1) will host the conference-rival Youngstown State Penguins (2-4) this weekend at Dana J. Dykhouse Stadium.
The Jackrabbits have been clicking on all cylinders, wielding the nation’s 16th-best scoring offense (32.4 PPG) and sixth-best scoring defense (14.8 PPG allowed). They have been dominant at home, going 3-0 and outscoring opponents 129-19. SDSU has scored at least 41 points in two straight games and three of the past four.
QB Mark Gronowski has racked up 978 passing yards and nine passing TDs to go with 82 ground yards and two rushing TDs. SDSU running back Amar Johnson has added 416 ground yards and four TDs, as well as 12 catches for 98 yards. Wideout Griffin Wilde has also been very good, hauling in 27-of-31 targets for 345 yards and three TDs.
Youngstown State has not enjoyed anywhere near the level of success as its MVFC rivals. The Penguins have ranked in the bottom 25 in scoring defense in the nation, surrendering 33.7 PPG. Its offense has been ranked 40th, however, averaging 28.3 PPG.
QB Beau Brungard has been a bit of a rollercoaster, racking up 1,013 yards and six TDs but also throwing six interceptions in six games. Brungard’s legs help him, though, as he has amassed 473 yards and six rushing scores on the season. Running backs Tyshon King and Ethan Wright have added a combined 647 yards and eight TDs.
This should be a great MVFC tilt. If you’re interested in watching, here’s everything you need to know in order to watch the South Dakota State vs. Youngstown State.

IM-28 Opponents close out South Dakota Municipal League Conference
SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (Dakota News Now) – The South Dakota Municipal League wrapped up its annual conference with another forum, where speakers warned about IM-28.
Opponents denounced the measure, saying that the ballot measure is written very poorly and that if judicial review is what’s being relied on, then that would be chaos for the state of South Dakota.
In his statement to Secretary of State Monae Johnson, Attorney General Marty Jackley said judicial or legislative clarification of the measure will be necessary.
Senator Tim Reed said the confusion of the measure’s language needed review like they have in the legislature.
“Those committee meetings are where we really work through and look for those unintended consequences and we make sure the wording is correct in a bill, and so this bill here does not have correct wording, and it would’ve failed in the legislature,” Reed said.
Those who spoke are also worried about their relationship with the Department of Revenue when it will no longer be able to collect and administer the sales taxes on the cities’ behalf
“So, cities, even if they can collect these taxes that portion of the law will go away, and we’ll be left to fend for ourselves on how we administer sales tax or perhaps contract with the Department of Revenue, and this will make a substantial negative impact on city budgets and our finance offices,” Sam Nelson, General Counsel for the South Dakota Municipal League said.
On the ballot, the fiscal note will say that this measure will cost the state $123.9 million, but opponents said at the very least it will cost $133 million and could be up to over $600 million depending on what items end up falling under the consumable items umbrella.
They said any cost will hurt cities in the state and that it’s important citizens think about their tax burden.
“If you’re not interested in an income tax, and you’re not interested in higher property taxes, where are the funds going to come from in order to do the normal basic operations of both state and municipal government,” Nathan Sanderson said.
According to WalletHub, South Dakota is 44th in the country in total tax burden at 6.44%.
Harrisburg Mayor Derick Wenck said that he’s concerned that if this passes, his city will not be able to pave roads and that citizens will continue to have to park on the same muddy gravel roads that they have before.
