  Cutter Stewart celebrated his return to Division I with 268 total yards and Houston Christian held off a fourth-quarter rally to defeat Southeastern Louisiana 34-28 in a season and Southland Conference opener on Thursday night. Stewart, a redshirt junior who spent last season at a junior college, threw for 173 yards and ran for 95. His 66-yard touchdown pass to Jamaal Hall II gave the Huskies a 31-14 lead with about two minutes left in the third quarter. In the fourth, SE Louisiana, ranked No. 19 in the Stats Perform FCS top 25 poll, rallied with two touchdown passes from Kyle Lowe to Lawson Dixon. The second score, on an 18-yard pass, made it 34-28 with 3 1/2 minutes remaining. Houston Christian then ran out the clock.

Held without a first down in the first quarter, the Huskies put up 17 points in the second quarter. Stewart's 39-yard pass to Ja'Ryan Wallace set up one touchdown and Stewart hit Keith Wheeler with a 12-yard scoring pass to make it 17-7 at halftime.

  With four boys bouncing off the walls of the Kopp household, the games never stopped. Well, maybe sometimes they stopped. "Our rule was if someone started crying we had to stop." laughed Braden Kopp, older brother of CU Buffs freshman quarterback Maddox Kopp. "We were always competitive, always outside playing sports." It should come as little surprise, then, that all four Kopp siblings have followed in the footsteps of their father, former University of Tennessee-Chattanooga tennis player Will Kopp, as scholarship Division I athletes. Braden played offensive tackle at Vanderbilt, Miller is a senior forward for the Indiana men's basketball team, and Anderson is a senior guard at Missouri-Kansas City. Maddox, meanwhile, is starting his first preseason camp in Boulder looking to move up the CU Buffs quarterback depth chart this fall.

After transferring in January from the University of Houston, the 6-foot-5, 220-pound redshirt freshman has work to do in order to catch up to incumbent starter Brendon Lewis, sophomore backup J.T. Shrout and redshirt freshman Drew Carter. Kopp said he's focused on getting better every day. "When I decided to come here I knew that I just wanted an opportunity to compete and that's what I'm doing every day, I love it." Kopp said. "We are pushing each other and it's been great." - Denver Post
