October 8, 2011 – The Ohio Dominican University football team put a shocking end to a number of winning streaks by Hillsdale College Saturday afternoon.

Thanks to a 22-point fourth-quarter explosion, the Panthers pulled off a 43-42 upset of the Chargers at Hillsdale’s news story imagehomecoming game Saturday afternoon at Frank “Muddy” Waters Stadium. Hillsdale is now 4-2 overall and 4-1 in the GLIAC, while the Panthers improved to 3-3 on the season.

This game marked the first home loss for the Chargers since Sept. 27, 2008 – a streak of 16 games – and the first homecoming loss for the team since 2003, a streak of eight games. ODU ended the streak by taking advantage of three Hillsdale turnovers, and stopping the Charger offense when it absolutely needed to.

A total of 36 points were scored in a frantic fourth quarter that featured quick scoring strikes by the Panthers, and another incredible performance by Charger junior RB Joe Glendening. But it was ODU who struck first, and held last, getting one of its biggest wins in its one-plus year as a member of the GLIAC.
