The Hillsdale College Chargers and Truman State University Bulldogs have been selected to participate in the second annual America’s Crossroads Bowl on Saturday, Dec. 4, in Hobart, Indiana.
Hillsdale (6-5, 5-2) and Truman State (8-3, 4-3) will represent the Great Midwest Athletic Conference and Great Lakes Valley Conference, respectively, in the contest held at Brickyard Stadium at 1 p.m. CT local time.
The Chargers finished tied for second in the Great Midwest standings. Hillsdale finished the season winners in three of its last four contests, including a victory at Great Midwest champion Findlay and a season-closing victory against Ohio Dominican, the league’s inaugural bowl representative at the America’s Crossroads.
Truman State will be returning to the America’s Crossroads Bowl for a second time after finishing third in GLVC play in 2021. The Bulldogs, who also claimed wins in three of their final four contests this season, captured the 2019 bowl title with a 21-7 win against Ohio Dominican.
The America’s Crossroads Bowl is one of four NCAA Division II bowl games sponsored nationally in 2021 and is conducted in partnership with the South Shore Convention & Visitors Authority and City of Hobart.
