The Crusaders, from the Bell County city of Belton, captured their first national title Friday night, beating Wisconsin-Oshkosh 10-7 in the Amos Alonzo Stagg Bowl at Salem, Va.
Mary Hardin-Baylor, a perennial power in D3, becomes the first Lone Star State school to grab a national championship since the Texas Longhorns took FBS honors for the 2005 season.
