A profile story features Warrior football player Chris Middlebrooks who has become the driving force behind the team's ground game. Middlebrooks, a 5-foot 7-inch, 177-pound power back, rushed for 89 yards on 23 carries, including a 24-yard touchdown, in the Warriors\' season opener, a 28-14 loss to Northwood. He thinks Wayne State is not far away from turning things around. \"The whole team was really young last year,\" he said. \"I was a sophomore and the starting quarterback was a freshman. With Coach Winters, it feels like the program is getting to be stronger. We just need to be a little more experienced.\"
