O’Brien’s yardage, TDs speed WU past Chicago
For the second time in the final half of Saturday’s game against the University of Chicago, junior running back Jim O’Brien was free. He had zipped past the entire Maroons defense and was now in open field, with nothing between him and the end zone.
Football: Consecutive fumbles doom Bears in their UAA opener

Football: Wooster’s improbable TD run stuns Bears late

Male Athlete of the Week: Tim Machan
In a must-win game against Rhodes College Saturday, Oct. 4th, senior defensive back Tim Machan perhaps made the biggest play of the day only seven minutes into the game. With the Lynx driving into the red zone, Machan intercepted a pass into the end zone, returning it 33 yards. The Lynx would be shutdown for the rest of the game. Machan’s interception and team-leading eight tackles earned him Student Life’s Male Athlete of the Week.
Football: Bears rebound from big loss with a 23-0 rout
After Sept. 19’s crushing 46-0 home defeat to Wittenberg University, Washington University was left with multiple questions.
Junior runningback Jim O’Brien answered those questions on Saturday, earning a career-high 146 rushing yards in the team’s 23-0 win over Rhodes College (2-3).
