Clarke hobbles off injured - doesn't look too bad (hopefully).

Erwin needs to recruit a bodyguard or two. I'm not saying a hockey goon, but someone with some size and strength, and more importantly, with a mean streak. Stephen F. Austin tried a lot of rough stuff, too (although I think that was partly because they were out of shape and couldn't stop), and until someone puts a stop to it, other teams will, too.
Any of you old-school SMU soccer fans might remember Cody Schroeder, the standout defender who also kicked for the football team for a year. He was big (by soccer standards), but not enormous ... but if you took any liberties with some of the other SMU players, he had a way of making sure you didn't do it too often. He wasn't a goon, by any means, but if it got rough, he was a hell of a policeman. When players started jawing at each other and shoving (or even punching), you could bet he was in the middle somewhere. He was more than willing to plant someone, to make a point to the other team, and it was very effective.
