Northwestern had something to prove this week.
After losing their opener by 41 points, the Tigers wanted to prove they're a better team than the one that was shut out by Palisades last week. They wanted to show improvement in all phase of the game, and they did that this week.
This time it was Northwestern pitching a shut with a 23-0 win over Salisbury in the home opener at Tiger Stadium.
"To come back off a 41-0 loss and win 23-0, it feels great," said Northwestern running back Mason Schuler.
