Congratulations to Clement and Dillard
To quarterback Chase Clement and receiver Jarett Dillard, we would like to offer our congratulations. They scored their 40th and 41st career touchdowns as a pair last Saturday, the most ever between a NCAA quarterback and receiver (see story, page 1).For the past three years, both as fans and fellow students, we have enjoyed watching them play, and they have approached their game and their records with commendable class. We are looking forward to the rest of the season, and we hope that their last season at Rice culminates with a bowl victory.
