PUEBLO — Colorado State University (CSU) Pueblo's football team clinched the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference (RMAC) title Saturday.

The Thunderwolves defeated Colorado School of Mines at the Thunderbowl by the final score of 28-13.

A lot was celebrated before the game, as this year's seniors and their families were honored. CSU Pueblo also honored veterans and recognized the 2014 National Championship Thunderwolves team.

Late in the second quarter, CSU Pueblo had a 7 to 3 lead before junior quarterback Roman Fuller found senior running back Howard Russell IV for a 28 yard score.

In the third, Fuller found senior wide receiver Reggie Retzlaff in the end zone to extend the Thunderwolves lead.
