HOW IT HAPPENED
The visiting Mustangs shot the ball well early, scoring the game’s first five points. The Lions needed five minutes to take their first lead.

Texas A&M University-Commerce announces a comprehensive search for a new head football coach
COMMERCE – Texas A&M University-Commerce has announced a comprehensive national search for its next head football coach, following the departure of Colby Carthel.
One year removed from winning the 2017 NCAA National Championship, Lion football is coming off a successful 10-3 season that featured an NCAA regional semifinal playoff berth. A&M-Commerce is one of only four scholarship programs in Texas to post three consecutive 10-win seasons over the last decade (Baylor, TCU, and Sam Houston State). The Lions are one of only three Division II programs to have an active streak of four consecutive NCAA playoff appearances.
“We are already well into the process of vetting quality candidates to be our next head coach,” A&M-Commerce Director of Athletics Tim McMurray noted. “Our interest from a variety of diverse backgrounds is invigorating, and it is a priority to hire someone who understands our Best in the Class standard for our student-athletes, our football program, and our community.”
From its final two-deep roster of 2018, the Lions are slated to return 15 of 22 starters on both offense and defense. The announcement for season ticket information for 2019 is in early February of next year.
“As an institution of distinction serving the Northeast Texas region, we have an outstanding opportunity to find our next successful leader for Lion Football,” A&M-Commerce President Dr. Mark Rudin said. “Our mission is to find a person whose priority is the success of our student-athletes – both in the classroom and on the field. We look forward to seamlessly transitioning our new head coach into our loyal A&M-Commerce extended family”.
A&M-Commerce will have no further public comments on the search until the new coach is named.

On the win: “It was an ugly Lone Star Conference battle. Both teams did a good job defensively of making it tough on the other team. We were able to get to the foul line and make enough plays. We rebounded better in the second half, and I think that ended up being the difference.”
On the team’s free throw shooting: “We shot the ball well from the line, almost 80 percent. We didn’t shoot the ball well from anywhere else, but it was good to get that category taken care of.”
On taking care of home court early in conference play: “In the Lone Star Conference, you have to take care of home court, and we did just enough both nights to do that. We are going to continue to try and get better every time we step on the floor.”
On second half adjustments: “We did a better job of taking care of the ball, getting into the paint and then making the right decision. We didn’t just shoot shots because it was one guy’s turn. That was a gritty win from our guys. With Coach Estelle, they play harder than anybody we have played this year. We knew that coming in.”

COACH BURTON AFTER THE GAME
On the win: “We challenged our team to come in today and play a complete game and play hard and do everything we could and leave it all out there for 40 minutes. We felt like we hadn’t done that yet. We challenged them to win the first five minutes of the first quarter, and we did that. And that lit a fire that didn’t run out today. I’m proud of the effort today.”
On having every player score: “This was a game where everybody got to play. I’m happy to see a stat sheet where everybody scores and everybody shares the ball. Twenty four assists are right up there as far as the most assists I’ve had as a head coach. To have 24 assists in a game, we played so unselfishly today. That was fun. It didn’t matter who scored the ball. We just took the best shot on the floor, and the ball went in at a high clip for us.”
On the players being excited for each other: “Our bench was the best it has been all year. From start to finish, they were excited. They were in the game. It felt like a different team out there today. It was fun to coach this team today because of how much they wanted each other to have success. Something finally clicked. I think they were able to see what we look like when we are clicking on all cylinders. We can carry it into our next game.”
On shooting the ball at a high level: “We haven’t had too many games like today where we shot 58 percent. It happened because of how we were playing. It started on the defensive end. I looked at the stats at halftime, and although we shot the ball well, we held them to 14 points. It is easy to look at the margin of victory, but that happened because we held them to 38 points in the game. We did an excellent job on the defensive end. Our defense today was outstanding.”

Onuoha is on the D2CCA honor list for the first time. The two-time all-LSC honoree made 47 tackles with 14.5 tackles for loss, 6.5 sacks, a forced fumble, an interception with a 48-yard return, nine quarterback hurries, and a pair of blocked kicks in his senior campaign.
Saathoff also earns his first D2CCA all-region honor. He is a two-time all-LSC winner and finished the season with 103 total tackles, 15.0 tackles for loss, 2.5 sacks, a fumble forced, a fumble recovered, and a blocked kick. He finished his Lion career ranked third in school history in total tackles with 312, and his 52 games played are a school record.
Ramsey’s electric playmaking ability earned him his first career all-region honor after earlier being named first-team all-LSC. He had three interceptions with 226 yards of returns and two touchdowns, including a 99-yarder, leading the nation in interception return yardage. He also averaged 12.9 yards on 36 punt returns with two goals. He made 37 tackles and had six pass breakups.
