After winning their first Mid-American Conference game last week against Bowling Green, the Akron Zips were able to overcome season-ending injuries to two of their key players to defeat the Ball State Cardinals 31-3 on Saturday.
After losing leading rusher, senior Warren Ball along with defensive captain, senior Zach Guiser for the season, different players had to step up for the Zips to win.
