The Sacramento State Hornets football team had a big win over the Idaho State Bengals on Saturday night, with quarterback Kevin Conklin throwing three touchdown passes in the 51-16 victory.
Conklin, a senior from San Diego, California, had a stellar performance, completing 22 of 28 passes for a total of 302 yards. He threw three touchdown passes to wide receivers Isiah Hennie and Jaelin Ratliff, and running back Elijah Dotson added another touchdown on the ground.
The Hornets defense also played well, holding the Bengals to just 16 points and forcing three turnovers. Linebacker Manoah Pearson had a team-high 11 tackles, while defensive back Dariyn Choates had two interceptions.
The win was an important one for the Hornets, who improved to 3-2 on the season. It was also an impressive performance for Conklin, who has now thrown for over 1,000 yards and nine touchdowns this season. He is proving to be a reliable leader for the Hornets offense and is helping to lead them to success.
Sacramento State will look to keep the momentum going as they take on Southern Utah next Saturday. With Conklin at the helm, the Hornets have a good chance of continuing their winning streak and making a run at the Big Sky Conference title.
