Well it was a tall task for the Greenville University football team on Sept. 21.

They traveled to Wisconsin to take on the University of Wisconsin-River Falls, the #17 team in the D3football.com national rankings.

The Panthers returned with a 66-7 defeat.

Greenville fell to 2-1 on the season with UWRF upping their mark to 2-0.

UW-River Falls went up 35-0 after one quarter and 56-0 at the half.

Greenville got on the board with 59 seconds remaining in the game when the offense capped a 10 play 99 yard drive with a one yard TD run by Terrel Graves.

It was tough sledding for the Panthers as they amassed only 183 yards including 105 through the air.
