The Crimson and Black defense stayed hot, forcing a pair of punts from the Rams.

The Rams finally got on the scoreboard as Bronkhorst hit Kel Williams for 20-yard touchdown strike. Angelo State cut the CWU lead to 9-7.
On the next drive for the Wildcats, the offense drove into the Angelo State half. After stalling, Wolff hit another field goal, this time from 42 yards out to extend the 'Cats lead to 12-7.
The Rams responded immediately. On 3rd and 6 from the ASU 34-yard line, Bronkhorst hit Zorhan Rideaux for a 66 yard touchdown. Angelo State took their first lead of the game as the Wildcats fell behind 12-15 with 44 seconds remaining in the third quarter.
Angelo State added another touchdown to the scoreboard later in the fourth quarter. After Bronkhorst hit Matthew Carter for 40 yards, he connected with Carter again for a 2-yard touchdown strike. CWU fell behind 12-22.
The Wildcats drop to 5-4 overall, 5-3 in LSC play. Next Saturday, Nov. 12, they'll honor their seniors as they take on Texas Permian Basin at 1:00 p.m.
